"Hello, my name is Mary." (name changed) the young woman on the opposite side of the table introduced herself. It was the sort of exchange one has before any business meeting or social event. As we each told a bit about ourselves one could feel the human warmth in the room! Things really began to heat up, though, when together we turned our attention to our Lord Jesus and began to worship and cry out to Him. Tears, songs of praise, exclamations of joy, and groans of supplication followed. By the end of two short hours, you'd have thought we were members of the same extended family!
We are! When you belong to Jesus, the deep fellowship with other believers is such a blessing! What I just described occurred last night, June 19, 2007, as five people from St. Peter and St. Paul (SPSP) and four people from First Wesleyan Church (FWC) just up the street from SPSP, met for the first time to pray!
I'm excited about what the Lord is going to do through this partnership! How wonderful to find a group of people who want to pray!
