Prayer is a unique, God-given connector that forms bonds and brings about life-transforming

changein peoples’ lives for time and eternity.

“Pray one for another.” James 5:16, KJV

I Prayed for You Today

Even though I wasn’t sure Exactly what to say,

I talked to God and spoke your name. I prayed for you today.

I asked the Lord to give you strength,To calm you from your stress,

To free you from the things you fearAnd bathe your mind with rest.

I asked the Lord to help youIn the uphill days to come.

I asked our precious, loving GodTo complete what He’s begun.

He whispered in the quiet And He filled my heart with peace.He said that you are deeply loved,And that His love will never cease.

- Rev. Greg Asimakoupoulos

“Those who accepted his message were baptized,

and about three thousand were added to their number that day. They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to

the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was

filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles….

Every day they continued to meet together in the

temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and

ate together with glad and sincere hearts,praising God and enjoying the favor of all the

people. And the Lord added to their number dailythose who were being saved.”

- Acts 2:41-43,46,47, NIV
