January 18 Prayer Blog

Posted by Carol Gilbert on

So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.    (Ephesians 4:11-13)

Equippers is the name given to a group of about three dozen people who are leaders or support leaders of small groups at Calvary.  One thing we do when we meet together is spend time in prayer for the body of Christ at Calvary.  In today’s edition of the blog, I’d like to share the prayer sheet we used at our meeting last week.  I hope it will encourage you to join the Equippers in praying for all the ministries going on among us.

Also take time this week to pray about how you serve at Calvary.  Ask the Lord how He wants to use you through the gifts and time He has given you.
