The LWML (Lutheran Women's Missionary League) Group meets on the first Saturday of each month from 9:00 a.m.- 11:00 a.m. Refreshments and faith are always shared during our meetings.Prayer Power!
At a recent meeting of our LWML (Lutheran Women's Missionary League) group, it was determined that Abundant Lifers need to focus on intentional corporate prayer together. The plan is for our members to set aside at least 5 minutes at 7 pm every day to pray. Ask God to equip us to meet the challenges and opportunities of ministry in this place. Ask Him to provide the necessary enrollment and resources to carry on our Child Care ministry; and that we increase in the number of people who hear the Word. Also, pray for the specific needs of the members of Abundant Life as they are made known.Sunday School News
