Prayers this week:

• Give thanks for all that attended Good Friday Service and Easter. Pray that people would get plugged in to community.
• Give thanks for all those who faithfully stepped forward and were baptized.
• Pray for the non-believers who heard the Gospel proclaimed on Sunday that they would hear the truth.
• Pray for the community groups that people would get a theology of place and mission. Pray against the selfishness and passiveness of man that prevents true Gospel community from being formed.
• Pray that the church would invite non-believers to the Church.
• Pray for the Trial series that many non-believers would come to know Jesus both at the Campuses and on-line.
• Pray for the campaign to raise Campus Pastors and Church Planters that 900 faithful and called men would step up.
• Pray for those who are worshiping money rather than Jesus. Pray the people would understand the deep riches of the Gospel and would desire to give out of that understanding.
