- Please continue to remember the long list of friends and family members mentioned each week by Pastor Steve during worship. Please pray for these families and for the doctors and medical personnel caring for each and every one.
- We continue to pray for all on our Frontline Workers list - doctors, nurses, medical personnel, first responders, retail workers and all providing the much-needed services to the community during the pandemic. We thank them for their dedicated service and pray for their safety and good health.
