Thank you Mike for today's lesson...
THREE IDEAS FOR ENCOURAGING CHURCH LEADERS - 1 Cor. 4:1-5, 9-20
Biblical Truth: Christians can help their churches' leaders be more effective by encouraging rather than criticizing them.
Refuse To Be Critical - 1 Cor. 4:1-5
Recognize Their Service - 1 Cor. 4:9-13
Accept Their Guidance - 1 Cor. 4:14-20

HAPPY BIRTHDAY - Danny Hillenburg and Joyce Isaacs


VISITORS - Randy Trimble - King & Kellye James - David Clark


PRAYER REQUESTS - James 5:13-16
Brian & Laura Elmore - 1) Pray for Peter, he is in the hospital in Oklahoma City with complications from pneumonia, and 2) our daughter-in-law's father, Jack, was just diagnosed with MDS, myelodysplastic syndrome, which is due to Agent Orange from his service in the Vietnam War. He will begin receiving infections immediately and most likely start transfusions. We would appreciate prayer for the treatments to work and slow the progression.

Gary & Donna Anderson - Gary's cousin, Janice, recently had a liver transplant. Janice has had multiple complications and remains unstable. Please pray that God's will will be made clear in her situation.

Continue to pray for all the men and women serving in the armed forces and law enforcement and our Nation.
