We are still in awe of the way God moved at Thursday’s National Day of Prayer – Azle!
From the opening moments as the AHS Chorale sang “I Sing Because I’m Happy,” to Bishop Leah’s inspiring challenge to boldly share the Gospel, to the powerful prayers offered by our community leaders, the day was filled with faith, unity, and the presence of the Lord. Singing “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms” together, sharing food and fellowship, and gathering as one body in Christ made for an incredible day that truly glorified Him.
Our gathering reminded us of the call in Hebrews 10 to “not neglect meeting together.” More than 290 people came together to honor God, pray for our community, families, schools, churches, businesses, military, first responders, government leaders, and healthcare workers, and praise Him for His many blessings.
So many people helped make this day possible. Behind the scenes, we are especially thankful for Terri Bartlett and her decorating team from Azle Good N.E.W.S., who transformed the venue with beautiful patriotic and Christian décor. We are also grateful to MrJims.Pizza Azle for providing backup pizzas for overflow guests, Jason's Deli for supplying 20 veggie spinach wraps, Outdoor World & BuyaZeroTurn.com for donating 120 water bottles, and Sutton Printing for generously providing the 300 programs and inserts for the event
We are blessed to live in a community that is unashamed of the Gospel — and it shows.
As Bishop Leah said, “This is not normal, y’all.”
Praise the Lord! Now let’s go out and share the love of Christ with the world.
