Altus Partners Last Update 09/02/06

• We’re A Praying Church!  We call ourselves "Prayer Partners". Our purpose is to pray for our church and the lives of those in it and the community around us. Someone from this congregation is praying on behalf of this church everyday of the week! They collect prayers throughout the week. This list is kept confidential, so if you have a prayer concern, we invite you to bring it to our prayer partners. You can do this through Ronald or BJ, or better yet, you can bring your requests directly to one of the Prayer Partners: Bill or Doris Harrison, James or Dee Heide or John or Debbie Tunning. "And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father." John 14:13
  
  The next meeting will be Thursday, September 14 at 6:30pm.
  
  We are currently studying and learning more about God The Son. This is a very informative and exciting study. The material we have on it is some of the best that we've ever read concerning this subject. Please join us as we study and pray for our communities.
