Prayer Promise: Payer Promise:  Psalm 91:15 “He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble,I will deliver him and honor him.

• Be in prayer for all the activities of our 150 th Anniversary this weekend. Pray for safety in travel as many former staff members come to Elkhart to share in this special time with our church family.

• Continue to pray for comfort and peace for Pat Darling and her daughters as they adjust to the loss of Wayne. Pray for safety for Malinda and Michelle and their husbands as they travel home.

• Pray for Mel Smith, Sr. as he was admitted to Elkhart General Hospital yesterday with pneumonia and other infections throughout his body.  Pray for peace for Ardis and wisdom for his doctors and for Patti as she makes decisions concerning his medical needs.

• Judy Monk requests prayer for her great-granddaughter, two-month old Bayli Yoder. A CT scan done Monday revealed that the bones in her skull have fused together, not allowing space for her brain to develop. Please pray for Bayli's parents as they consult with doctors at Riley Children's Hospital and for wisdom and peace for the family during this time.

• Continue to pray for comfort for Jason and Tina Witt and their family as they adjust to the loss of Jason's father. Pray that those who are unsaved would come to Christ during this time.

• Please be in prayer today for our service personnel, Jamie Conklin (Army-Iraq) and David Donnell (Marines-Washington, D.C.).   Pray for safety for each of them as they serve our country and for peace for their families during their time away.

• Our missionaries of prayer interest this week are Kari Gathany, serving with Youth For Christ in Elkhart County, and Dan Brower who is home on medical furlough from Brazil.

• Our shut-ins to remember in prayer today are Alice R. and James and Ida R.
