“Throw out the rule book and simply talk to God -- any way, anywhere, anytime about anything.” – Joyce Meyer
The next time you’re driving by one of our shelters or UGM Motors or the Thrift Stores, will you pray for UGM and the people who come through our doors? Like Joyce said, simply talk to Him, and while you’re talking, bring up the poor in spirit, the brokenhearted, the captives and those who mourn.
Thumb through the newsletter. Pray for Sheldon and Rowdy.* Pray that they will persevere and that the comfort they are experiencing now won’t diminish or be forgotten. Pray for our volunteers. Pray for Phil and the leadership team. Pray for strength and health, creativity and good decision-making. Pray for Friday Night Outreach, that the men and women will experience the love of God and be called to new life. Pray for Celebrate Recovery and nightly chapel, that spirits would be lifted and encouraged. Pray that God will be glorified in all that we do. We, in turn, are praying for God’s blessing in your lives as you partner with us in this meaningful way.
*You can request a prayer card with Sheldon’s and Rowdy’s specific needs at 509-535-8510 or info@uniongospelmission.org.
