July 21 Praises & Prayer Requests

Here are praise reports and prayer requests for this week. 
Praise Reports:
- Praise the Lord: In the meeting last night about an inter-church replacement for a recovery ministry in town, the Lord led us to an unexpected direction - a drop in centre for prayer and gospel-focused practical and relationship-building interaction for people in need. 
- Praise the Lord - There are already 16 ladies signed up for the Women's Study in the autumn!
- Praise the Lord: The camps during the past two weeks went well for Tim. 
- Praise the Lord: It was a lively group discussion at Maghaberry prison that I led this past Friday. Roy was not there again, but we're entrusting all the men to the Lord.  

Thank you for praying for the following with us:
- Pray for the Lord to continue the leading into His will for a replacement to the Christian recovery ministry that has been in town.
- Pray for the Holy Spirit to direct the messages through Habakkuk that Tim is preparing for the three weeks in August that Cindy and I will be away.
- We also want to lift up to the Lord: Tim working at Faith Mission children's camps, the Scripture Union's youth camps and other camps, as well as Holiday Bible Clubs that will be running this summer. We pray for children to be saved, camp workers to grow in the Lord and the Lord's word and will to be worked out in all these lives.
- Please continue to pray for more spiritual hunger in our youth group. 
- Pray that church members keep growing in confidence in the Lord. Praise the Lord for the growth that we are seeing!
Be praying for these upcoming items:
- Creation Fest 2015, the first week of August
- Holiday in Vienna, Austria then Western Europe Missions Conference in Millstadt, Austria 2nd & 3rd weeks of August

Thank you for your faithful prayer support
God bless you,
Rick & Cindy Johnston
