Matthew 28:19-20

Jesus said, "Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

The Power of Prayer

Time flies by
A new year begins
But we still won't forget the places we have been
The friendships we've made and the joy we have seen
The people worshiping God with all of their being

And so in prayer we must always support
This reminds me of one man we have sought
A man, no doubt, after God's very own heart
Who started a ministry surrounding the children who felt lost

The street kids ministry we were involved in during our mission trip to Philippines was started off by a street kid himself, Pr. Larry. We may no longer be there in person to help out on the growing ministry, but as we enter the new year... Let us continue to keep them in prayer!
  • Pray for the ministry and church's provision and that God will continue to provide for them (physical strength, finacial needs, etc.)
  • Pray for the wonderful workers and volunteers that has put in a lot of effort to minister to the kids and glorify God's Name. Pray that they will not grow weary or lose faith, and that their passion will continue to grow strong for God. May God continue to bless them in the things they need and in accordance with His perfect timing.
  • Pray for each and every action taken by this ministry, that it will continue to touch the hearts of both the kids and the adults. Pray that God's Almighty Hand will continue to lead them as they reach out to the many street kids in their area.
  • Pray for the other churches surrounding the area, that they will come to realize the awesome things this ministry is fulfilling and lend a helping hand to reach out to more people.
  • Pray for the leaders of this ministry; that they will always know that the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. Pray that God will continue to manifest in their hearts and give them visions of wonders that they could never imagine possible.
  • Pray for the street kids - that their hearts be soften to the Word of God and allow Him to change their lives for the better. Pray for those who have come to know Him, that they may not only be interested in His Word but also in serving Him with their lives.
  • Pray that the Philippine government will also see these efforts put in and will stand to join and support this purpose.

John 15:7

If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you.
