3 WEEKLY PRAYER SHEET 02/11/2018 Praying for our Church Planters We have three church plants connected with Easthaven in Whitefish, Columbia Falls, and Big Arm. The call to plant a church is one that involves this entire family. The spiritual health of the planter s family is vital for a strong kingdom impact. 1. Pray our planters children find their identity in Jesus At an early age, the children of planters often face unique pressures due to the daily challenges of ministry. Pray they would look first to Jesus for their hope and identity. Pray their parents would consistently and lovingly point them to His saving grace. 2. Pray our planters work enthusiastically and diligently Balancing work and family can be difficult, especially when the line between the two is blurred by ministry. Pray our planters work from the heart, as something done for the Lord and not for people (Col. 3:23). Pray this perspective keeps their investment in marriage and family prioritized properly. 3. Pray for financial health & stability for planters family In marriages and families, few things cause more stress than money. This fact is compounded in church planting by the reality that many planters live monthto-month on faith that God will move inside churches and individuals to provide for their needs. Pray God will indeed provide for them, and they will be good stewards of all He has provided. We d love to pray for you! Update our online prayer chain by going to easthaven.org.
