This Sunday at Church: Pray for churches to partner for the Great Commission

I can gratefully say that our church enjoys partnering with others. It started largely with the local youth groups teaming up, though there was some cooperation already happening. I have preached at several churches around the area, in other cities, and across state lines. Many of us have teamed up to send groups and missionaries out, with six of us having spent about the last two years preparing to send a family to a recently war-torn Land.

Please pray for continued unity in gospel partnership.
