Hello, Friends! I hope you've had a great week. Since Tuesday, I have been working nonstop doing Christmas preparation. There's really not much left to do, so these last few days I will have moments of quiet to reflect and anticipate.
What have you been up to?
I'm recycling the scripture from last week and adding a new one. I don't have long to post today because I'm having another surgery this morning. What I liked most about the lessons is the reminder that Jesus is the Light of the World, and we are blessed to have the Light of this knowledge!
Prayer Requests
- Pray for our military and military families, and the Wisconsin National Guard deployed in Iraq.
- Pray for Kitty's son Mike to get a job that uses his talents.
- Kitty asks that we pray for Molly’s husband, Eric, to find a job. The start up company that he was working for closed Friday.
- Pray for a peaceful and smooth transition of power between now and January 20, 2025.
- Pray that we can all find quiet time with God during the holiday hustle and bustle.
- Thank-you for praying for my surgeries. I am doing well, and I have three down and two to go! I will have one today, and the final one on Monday, December 30.
- Shanley Belle and Christopher will be driving down from Ann Arbor today, so please pray travel mercies for them.
- Carla asks that you pray for her Florida friends that lost so much during the hurricane and are still cleaning up and rebuilding... sadly they miscarried December 11th. They are devastated. They do have the blessing of family, friends and their sweet little girl who is 1 1/2 years old to help them during this time. I thank our prayer warriors to lift them up in prayer as well. Thank You!
- Carla also asks that we pray next week for her family. They will be traveling from all over the state of Wisconsin to meet at her parents farm for the weekend for an early Christmas celebration. Thank you for prayers for safe travels.
- Let's pray for safety for all of us and our families as we travel and drive in inclement weather during this Christmas Season.
- URGENT: There has been a shooting in a Christian school in Madison, Wisconsin. Please be in prayer for the victims, their families, and the school community. Please keep us updated, Carla.
Jesus is the Light of the World!
Have a safe and blessed weekend, friends!
Until next time...
Blessings!

ReplyDeleteEric found out that he was hired this week and will start work on January 6th. Thank you for prayers, dear Prayer Warriors.
Have a beautiful weekend filled with Joy!
Thank you all for the prayers. Our friend Elena's son attends the school that the shooting happened. They were reunited later that day. It has been a whirlwind of emotion for the family, school, church and community.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the prayers.
Love to all,
Carla
Oh my, Carla, I'm so sorry to hear of this tragedy so close to your circle. Kitty, I'm relieved and joyful Eric has found another job. May the Light forever shine and comfort us all!
