Please Pray:
~ For our Agape Angels to recognize that they can choose to “throw off everything that hinders” and to know the joy of persevering in this race.

~ For each Agape Angel to see God’s love for them in those people who are in their lives!

~ For the girls to put all that they have into the ‘Wizard of Oz’ performance on Sunday, and enjoy their accomplishments!

Praise God:
