Notices – Aug 27 – Sep 10, 2023

Wij bidden dat de vrede van Christus zal wonen bij allen die in deze tijd rouwen, waaronder:

VERGEET NIET TE BIDDEN…

• Voor de leiders van ons land en al haar middelen en plannen, uit dank aan de Almachtige God voor zijn voortdurende bescherming van ons volk en land.
• Degenen die opgesloten zitten, degenen in nood zijn en degenen die de harde realiteit van het leven ervaren, maar geen ervaring met Christus hebben.
