"Lord, thank you so much for the great response we’re seeing to the work day coming up this Saturday. Please bless all who will participate. Help them to get as much out of it as they give. Please help everyone to be safe with the heights, the saw cuts, the power tools, the lifting, the heaving… and help them to all have fun — 20+ workers all purring in the same Freedom Barn. Please help them to be productive and effective and to work together in unity. Please raise up the funds to purchase the supplies for all that they will be building. In Jesus’ Name, Amen."

!!!!!!!!!! IMPORTANT UPDATE/ANSWER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On January 15, just 3 days after this prayer… and 1 day after the work day, an anonymous donor at Fern Creek Christian Church gave $1000 to cover the luncheon meal for all 30 workers *plus* to sponsor the construction projects for that day and then some! Praise God for the Body of Christ (the way each person can use his/her personal gifts for His glory) and for answered prayer!

Please join us again in thanking the Lord for Joe Wilson, our future Facility Manager. He’s in the process of raising support and, even while in that process, comes down and volunteers some. He’ll be down on Sunday through Thursday this coming week.

 

"Lord, thanks for Joe and for his love for you and for this work. Please help him to have a safe trip down and a fun time, even as he’s working for you. Last time, he worked so hard and worked long hours and stayed in the barn (before the furnaces were done) and caught cold. Please protect him this time from any sickness — and help him to enjoy the heat that he, himself, helped install! In Jesus’ name, Amen."

Join us in giving thanks for Elijah, who did a great job rolling, rolling, rolling. The rain poured down, but he just wouldn’t quit. Because the ground was spongey, the parking lots didn’t pack like we would have liked for them too, but in spite of that, the gravel is packed in a lot better than it was before and isn’t loose like driving on marbles now.

 

"Lord, thank you for Elijah’s willingness to work in the cold rain. Protect him, bless him, and help him as he returns to Kentucky Christian University for college classes soon. In Jesus’ name, Amen."

No… we're not becoming "Holy Rollers", quite yet… 🙂 but we would seriously love it if you would please pray for safety for those rolling the gravel out tomorrow. They'll be using an industrial grade "steam roller", rented from "The CAT Store" here in Louisville. Pray that God would give wisdom and skill to the drivers … like Doug, Elijah, and Aaron. var fctb_tool=null; function FCTB_Init_e2287868958df1458dd0bdd1e8b66311(t) { fctb_tool=t; start(fctb_tool); } FCTB_Init_e2287868958df1458dd0bdd1e8b66311(document[‘FCTB_Init_45f5272e12941b4494e562fcdde43dc6’]); delete document[‘FCTB_Init_45f5272e12941b4494e562fcdde43dc6’]

Ask the Lord that He would gain glory even by the land and the buildings that stand up for His name. Like in the Old Testament, when they raised up "stones of witness" for Him, ask that these stones and cedars of witness will signify His grandiose nature, His warm and gentle spirit, and his neverending love. Pray that these trees, the stars, and even the bricks and logs that make up Emerald Hills campus can "sing" a song to Him each day.

Ask the Lord to already go before us and begin preparing the seedbeds in the churches that will come and train at Emerald Hills. Pray that they’ll rediscover their first pupose and find renewal and revitalization in missions.

Ask the Lord to work in advance to bless the missionaries who will come to Emerald Hills to train, build their teams, and/or regroup after having served overseas. Pray that the vision of serving them will be fulfilled in great measure.

Ask God to help us with…

• Recruiting volunteers to help us that day
• Planning the jobs for all the helpers
• Acquiring all the materials and tools in advance
• Hosting and staging the workers most efficiently 

Pray for Fern Creek Christian Church and its men’s ministry. They hope to be involved in a big way.

Joe and his family want to relocate to Louisville to work at Emerald Hills full time. As they pray and work at communicating with friends, family, and churches, will you pray for God’s leading and timing? What a blessing it will be to have him on staff and his family here in this ministry.
