LCA Story of the Week:
Having noticed the lack of a genuinely rural Australian devotion resource, Pastor Stephen Jaensch encouraged his congregation at Emerald in Queensland to join him in producing something to fill the need. He’d asked his members once a year for four years about taking on the project, but the fifth time he asked, they said ‘yes’!

Prayers for the Week:

· For the Church, LCAQD; and its ministry to the deaf and the mute and the blind
· For the pastors Bishop John Henderson, District Bishop Mark Vainikka; Pastor Joel Pukallus and all pastors; and all church workers who are deaf, blind, or handicapped in some way
· For all Christians, knowing that God wants all people to be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth, that they may not show favouritism to any particular people
· For all the services of the government, that they not be biased to the wealthy and deny the poor
· For the judicial system, that it may provide the poor with adequate counsel when needed
· For those who are impaired, whether physically, mentally, socially, or financially
· For single parents and their children
