We have been tremendously blessed by these ladies from Grove City who have felt the burden of the Lord for our city.

Prayer Requests:

• For people to experience God’s love as they are served by the upcoming mobile medical/dental clinics and feeding program at the Resource Fair this weekend at Chandler Park in Detroit’s eastside, and for sufficient volunteers to fill all needed slots.
• For the Lord’s leading in how the vision and movement of EACH (Everyone A Chance to Hear) will be carried forward after the 40-day campaign ends.
• That the Lord will do miraculous signs and wonders in the name of Jesus throughout Metro Detroit as His people boldly share the Gospel
• For inter-denominational fellowship, service, and unity in Jesus to continue developing through the community networks and upcoming Community Happenings

On April 4 Janell’s mom, Norma Carmon, suffered a heart attack and on Thursday, April 21 she entered into eternity with Jesus. Though the physical loss is great, there is a peace in knowing she is with Jesus (and Jim). Please pray for all the sisters & their families as they continue to mourn the loss of both Jim and Norma Carmon (Jim passed away in December).

Petition the Lord for provision of daily needs at Acts 29 and the ability to pay operational costs and salaries.

Praise God for the faithful hearts and servant hands of the Spring Arbor Mission team. Thanks to them we have a repaired roof and livable dorms for mission teams coming later in 2011. This team also made a huge impression on the community for giving their time to serve the Lord during their Spring Break

-Please pray that Jesus would display his power and truth by healing one of the men’s ESL students who was two tumors on his neck.
