IN OUR PRAYERS

A district prayer calendar was sent out recently for your use in praying for our district and related programs through the years. We invite you to include the following in your prayers in coming weeks:

Week of Feb. 14: Pray for the members of the Decatur congregation after they made the difficult decision to close their doors recently, and give thanks for their long ministry in central Illinois. Pray for them to be able to find new places that feed their spirits and provide important community.

Week of Feb. 21: Pray for the Lanark congregation this week, and for their ministry in and around their community in northwestern Illinois.

Week of Feb. 28: Pray for the Oak Grove congregation this week, and for their ministry in and around Lowpoint.

Week of March 7: Pray for the Chicago First congregation this week, as they continue their long ministry of service and justice in the city.

Do you have congregational news: celebrations, milestones, “Jesus in the Neighborhood” stories or other things to share with our district family? Please send those to the district office: andreag.iwdcob@gmail.com.
