"Faith is the assurance of the things we HOPE for, being the proof of the thing we do not see, and the conviction of their reality." ~ Hebrew 11:1

Pray for our Agape Angels to have FAITH to let the LIGHT of God's presence shine on their HOPES and plans.

Pray for the girls to accept that change in their lives is a good thing, and to embrace the HOPE of a better tomorrow.
Pray for His LOVE to fill the empty void that so many people try to fill with shopping, eating, partying, etc.

Pray for one of our Agape Angel who's mother passed away this past week, as she grieves this loss, while pressing in to move forward with her life on the path that God has planned for her; pray for the family to be strengthened and comforted by God as they go through these next couple of weeks, and that they will celebrate the life of their beloved Mother.

Praise God for the response to a 'Special Request' earlier this week for gifts for some children in need . . . your responses were heart warming, and will be a blessing on Christmas morning.

Praise God for the numerous volunteers stepping forth to assist in so many ways at Agape, whether it is through your gift of prayer, transporting an Angel to an appointment, spending an evening with the girls making dinner and just being there, helping with all of the maintenance to be done around the buildings, organizing closets, donating food, tutoring, assisting the office staff with computer set up or learning programs, assisting with marketing of this ministry, cleaning, etc. I think you can see that the list is long! Praise God as He meets each one of these needs by calling on you to give of your talents or time; you are all making a difference in the lives of these girl and their families!

"In all your ways, know, recognize and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths." ~ Proverbs 3:6
