January 2023 Prayers
Dear Church on the Street Family,
I got to preach at a new partner congregation on Sunday. The folks gathered for worship were eager to hear the story of Church on the Street and excited about not only donating supplies and quarters but they are looking for a time to come and be Church together. The gospel for the day told the story of Jesus teaching the disciples for the first time in Matthew, describing how he and the disciples will spend their time blessing people. Whether in the laundry mat or out on the cold streets, God is working to bless the people. Today you are part of that blessing as you hold folks in prayer. Thank you for all the ways you bless God's people near and far.
It's great to be Church together.
Pastor Chris
