Whatcoat Prayer Before the Ballots Service

10/27/2026

🙏🏽🇺🇸 This election is TOO IMPORTANT to sit out!

Join us at Whatcoat United Methodist Church on Wednesday, October 28, at 12:00 NOON for an in-person prayer service as we come together to seek God's guidance, wisdom, and peace for our nation, our leaders, and our communities.

We are asking everyone to fast that morning until noon, preparing our hearts, minds, and bodies for this time of prayer.

There is power in prayer, and now more than ever, we need to come together in faith! 🙏🏽❤️

All are welcome!

❤️ 100 YEARS OF LIFE, LOVE, FAITH, AND LEGACY! ❤️

A TRUE VIRTUOUS WOMAN! 🌹

What a blessing it is to witness 100 years of God's goodness and grace!

Our Whatcoat United Methodist Church family was honored to join the Dover Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated in celebrating an extraordinary woman, Dr. Reba Hollingsworth, as she celebrates 100 years on this earth! ❤️

A century of life! Just think about that. One hundred years of wisdom, strength, perseverance, faith, and memories. Dr. Hollingsworth is a beautiful reminder that a life well lived is not simply measured by the number of years, but by the lives touched, the love shared, and the legacy left for generations to come.

Proverbs 31:28–29 (NIV) reminds us:

“Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: ‘Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.’”

Dr. Hollingsworth, you are truly a Proverbs 31 woman! A woman of grace, dignity, wisdom, and strength. What a joy it was to see you surrounded by so much love, admiration, and celebration!

We thank God for your life, for the doors your generation has opened, and for the example you continue to set. You are living history, a precious treasure, and a blessing to all who have the privilege of knowing you.

100 years young, and STILL a testimony of God's faithfulness! 🙌🏾

From your Whatcoat UMC family, we say HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY, DR. REBA HOLLINGSWORTH! 🎂❤️

May God continue to cover you with His love, peace, and abundant blessings!

🌹 A century of grace. A lifetime of purpose. A legacy that will live on! 🌹

Heavenly Father,

We lift up the City of Dover and everyone impacted by the tornado. Lord, surround our community with Your protection, peace, and strength. Be with the families whose homes and property were damaged, and comfort anyone who is afraid, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next.

We pray for our **first responders, emergency personnel, utility workers, city leaders, neighbors, churches, and volunteers** as they work to keep our community safe and help with recovery.

Lord, help us to come together, check on one another, lend a helping hand, and be a light to those in need. May Your grace cover Dover, and may we find strength in knowing that even in the midst of the storm, **You are still with us.**

Protect our city. Strengthen our community. Keep us in Your care.

In Jesus’ name,
Amen.🙏🏾
