Before the busyness of the weekend begins, I wanted to send a little prayer your way.

May this prayer remind you that God is already here.

I have been saying this for years …

Your worship playlist may be doing more than lifting your mood. Researchers say it could be reshaping the way your brain responds to the world.

Ladies Fellowship celebrated Eileen and Diane's birthdays and honored Carmen as she moves south. God has opened doors and answered prayers for this relocation near family but we will feel the great loss of a godly family who has added so much to our fellowship. 💕

JUNE ☀️ A new month, a slower rhythm, and a fresh invitation to bring it all to the Lord.

If you’re opening your prayer journal this month and wondering where to begin, here are 5 prayer prompts to add to your list:

1. Those grieving the loss of a dad
2. Leaning into the slower pace of summer
3. Safety for those traveling
4. A deepened prayer life
5. Strengthened families

June can hold a lot: Father’s Day joy, celebrations, and grief, summer transitions, travel plans, kids home from school, full calendars, quiet mornings, and the desire to not let the season pass us by in a blur.

So this month, let’s bring it all to God. The tender places. The joyful places. The unknowns. The people we love. The rhythms we’re craving. The prayers we’ve been carrying quietly.

Save this post for your June prayer journal setup, and share it with a friend who wants to be more intentional in prayer this month.

What are you adding to your prayer list for June?

“As we face huge problems as a culture and a church, it’s tempting to look to big things for big solutions: national elections, mass movements, revolution, a spectacular revival, some intensely viral online message.”⁠
⁠
But Tish Harrison Warren suggested last year that “the work we need to do is the slow—and long, risky, and uncertain—work of repair.”⁠
⁠
“In our work, friendships, homes, and neighborhoods, we can take up the challenge of building something solid, slow, and enduring—something that can witness to Jesus and his kingdom, a kingdom not captive to American politics in any way.⁠
⁠
The daily work of becoming a new kind of people, a people marked by the mercy, grace, love, and humility of Jesus, is the work that must start again today and tomorrow and the day after that.”

So grateful for sunshine today and a visit to the Griggs home which has served the NMBC church for many years and was purchased in 1994 for full time use as housing, meetings, Sunday School and many social gatherings. The old timers remember the best molasses cookies made by Mrs. Griggs (Deborah Roberts Griggs) which she freely gave to those of us at youth choir practices every week. God has been gracious by providing such support and sacrifice from this family since 1854.
