Praying Always

There is an important update from the NDMC Board in this E-Gram. I would ask you to read it carefully. I would also ask you to prayerfully decide how to respond. This has not been an easy time for anyone and no one has all the answers. The Church Board continues to seek to make the best decisions for all involved. I would ask that you pray for them, and that you think of how you can respond in a way that will be constructive for the Church.

Here’s a little snippet from next week’s sermon text: “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love,” (1 Corinthians 16:13-14, NIV). What is the most courageous, strong, and loving thing you can do this week for your fellow believers and for those who don’t know Christ in our community? That’s what we should do.

Weather permitting, we will be holding our Friday coffee time outside, so bring your lawn chairs and enjoy this time of fellowship.

Praying for NDMC today.

God bless, Brian
