Christian, Carysse, Kalia, Caleb, Kellan City of Joy Fellowship in East St. Louis, IL Planted by Bethlehem in 2016
Pray for City of Joy ... • That God would continue to save souls and draw each of us near in a lasting relationship with Jesus. • That God would grant us peace and safety as our ethnically diverse congregation grows in unity and love, seeking to serve the troubled community of East St. Louis. • That God would grant favor and grace on our partnerships with other organizations as we serve the revitalization of the East St. Louis community.
Ministering with CRU as Coordinator for Short-Term International Interns In CRU’s Upper Midwest region, I help to care for staff, specifically our international interns who serve overseas.
Pray for Londa ... • That I would walk closely with God and grow to know and love him more. • For our 42 international interns from the Upper Midwest heading out to 10 overseas locations for the school year. • For 2018’s graduating college students to be motivated to spread the gospel, and for unbelieving students around the world to hear the good news of Jesus and be drawn from death to life.
