Today’s prayer concern: Elk River Young Life
Pray for the kids at Young Life that are beginning to see that they are called to serve, that we help them find a place to minister.   Pray that God would further strengthen the Committee – the group of adults that ‘own’ Young Life in the Elk River area.  Also pray for God’s provision in our financial development:  We have about $25,000 left to raise by August 1.

Today’s prayer concern: BASIC Outreach
Pray for willing volunteers to step forward to spend time and give the gift of hospitality to families and individuals in need of shelter.  Pray for God’s blessings on the churches that participate in this outreach.  Pray for an outpouring of resources – finances and volunteers – to meet the ongoing needs of homelessness and inadequate housing in our area.

Today’s prayer concern: Mirembe House Crisis Pregnancy – Kampala, Uganda
Ask God for total transformation of the girls at Mirembe House – spiritually, mentally, and socially – so they may be able to move forward in life.  Pray for forgiveness and reconciliation in homes where these girls come from.

Today’s prayer concern: Drive Out Hunger
Drive Out Hunger’s mission is twofold.  First to help meet the immediate funding needs caused by the increased usage of food shelves, kitchens and shelters and second to provide for the improvement and/or repair of their existing facilities.  Please pray for both Drive Out Hunger as an organization but also for DOH leaders and volunteers, that the Lord will continue to give them the insight, wisdom and humility to turn over the burden to him and rely on him to provide for daily needs.
