Earn Reading Bucks during the Library's Fall Reading Program

09/26/2026

Wednesday was the first day of having a booth for the Library at the Fair. Had several families stop by the booth asking for prayer. What do you do!
You grab their hands ask the need and you take it to our Lord right then and there. Each of these families wanted prayer for a prodigal teen or young adult child. You could see the hurt and concerns in their eyes. And could feel it on their hearts as they shared.
I could share with them that I was once a prodigal myself. Homeless sleeping in my car and drinking way too much. God found me, He will find their kids as well. We just need to keep praying and having faith.
There is a lot of parents seeking prayer for their prodigals. My prayer book has several pages full of these parent's request.
I think as we see the time for Christ return drawing near, He has placed prodigals heavier on parents hearts.
Join me in prayer for all these parents.
