Prayers for the week

I would like to thank you for your continued prayers. This week we will be working on a few things. There is a city council meeting Tuesday night and an adult bookstore has applied for a business license. I am joining a group of concerned citizens to block this business license. Please pray that the city council will understand the destructive nature of this type of store and deny the business license. Also, pray for the man who wants to start this business, that he will realize the sin of pornography and will repent.

We are also working on incorporation procedures so that we can begin to raise funds. Please pray that the process will go smoothly and quickly.

I have been thinking about what positions we need on our church planting team. Specifically, I wonder what ministry positions are required and what type of person I should look for. Please pray that I will have the proper discernment in making these decisions.

Have a blessed week.

Activities for this week

As I sit here mourning the loss of the New Orleans Saints to the Chicago Bears, I am planning my week's activities. Here are a few things you can pray about for LifeTree Church.

  • I am recruiting an accountant to serve on the board of directors. I need someone who has impeccable integrity and financial savvy. This person will be the secretary/treasurer of the board of directors, which means that he/she will process our funds. Please pray that we find the right person. I would like to file papers for incorporation before the end of January.
  • I am working with Clay Hiott to find a web hosting service and develop our church webpage. Pray that we find a good web hosting service. If you have any recommendations, we would love to hear them.
  • Tuesday night is the Paulding Commissioners meeting. I will be attending this meeting in order to meet some of the leadership of the community. Maybe we will find a man of peace who can help us with the plant.
  • We are continuing to reach out to our neighbors in the community to share the gospel and develop a core group.

Thanks for your prayers.

Prayer Team Sought

This is the initial post of the LifeTree Church. LifeTree Church is a new church in Paulding County, Georgia. We are intent on creating changed lives - boldly living for God, and building strong families. In the near future, I will post more on how we intend to accomlish this feat. At this time, I want to invite all those who may be interested to join with us in prayer.

We need a great deal of prayer to undertake a ministry of this nature. If you would like to join the prayer team, send me an email at:
