Dear Prayer Team Member, "Today it is the elderly and infirm who are pushed to the social margins, and often warehoused in substandard conditions that put them in harm’s way, as was recently experienced when Covid-19 roared through nursing homes. The pro-abortion lobby continues to deny science by labeling the developing pre-born “non-human,” “clump of cells,” “parasite,” and “not a person.” This labeling encourages the decades-long relentless assault on the unborn, scapegoating them to avoid the consequences of sex and the responsibilities of parenthood." Excerpt from the Sep-Dec Call to prayer by Executive Director, Deborah Hollifield: |

Psalm 95:6-7a, Ephesians 1:3-6 (NRSV) O come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, just as he chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before him in love. He destined us for adoption as his children through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace that he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved. |

Sep 20-26, 20201. Pray for God’s forgiveness for the church for establishing rigid rules and protocols that exclude or unduly exalt individuals because of age, wealth, intelligence, health, position, gender, race, or position. 2. Pray that as Presbyterian congregations and as champions of life we will discern and call leaders that are humble before God and serve gratefully as his adopted children by the grace of Jesus Christ. |
