Prayer

We've started a new thing at the Foundry. If you show up at 5pm, instead of 7pm, you get to pray the Bible with us! Yesterday was the innagural PTB walk around the chapel for the Foundry, and almost immediately we could see that God blesses this. I guess there is something to praying His words back to Him! We had visions of what God wanted to use the Foundry for, and some of the obstacles we face, and then prayed about those as well. Seriously, come check it out. Its worth the extra time.

When we got started with worship at 7pm, we could already feel God's presence in the room. We were few in number, but it was a solid time of worshipping the King of Kings! We then spent some time praying for the transitions that the Bangor corps is going through. We prayed blessings for the Burrs as they take their new appointments in Rhode Island. Then we spent a bit of time praying for the corps, soldiers, and programs, as this change is taking place. Some powerful words spoken there, for sure. And then finally, we prayed for our new leaders, the Lyles. That their transition would be smooth and strong, that they would come in with boldness for the Lord, and that He would be their covering. And since its always good to end with some worship, that's what we did. So we praise God for how He has worked through the Burrs in Bangor, and we anxiously await what He will do through the Lyles as well.
