Dinner and Prayer

I arrived at the home of Brookfield Lutheran members, Tim and Cheryl, who hosted our Dominican Republic team with supper and prayer.  Our team sat on chairs facing one another as a number of couples from Brookfield Lutheran prayed over us and with us.  Pray without ceasing, the apostle Paul says.  The apostle James says, “You don’t have because you don’t ask God.”  We are asking Him for health and strength, safe travels and success, and for this mission to flourish.  My prayer is, with all the planning, that we remember He will direct our steps, and that, whatever is before us, especially the unknown, we can do all things through Christ who always gives us strength.  PC
