Heavenly Fatherlook down upon your servant, Thomas
as he prepares to leave for Brazil
look down upon this congregation
as they prepare to pray and support him
look down upon his students there
as they prepare to become missionaries
Heavenly Father
teach us to share and give of our talents
so that your name will be spread
teach us to understand the meaning
of language and its use in prayer
teach us to come together in time of need
and use prayer as a means to and end
Heavenly Fathergive us the compassion to help others
while we help ourselves attain paradise
give us the compassion to reach out
to those less fortunate, those more needy
give us the compassion to understand
that no matter how little it do, it matters
Heavenly Father
look down upon your servant, Thomas
and bring him safely back home to Central
teach him humility so that he can improve
the use of his gifts and talents more fully
and give him and us a true understanding
of the power of Your word around the world
Amen!
bloginfo: I asked the congregation to pray with me today at Central Baptist Church as I prepare to leave on Wednesday for Brazil. This will be my third year there at JAMI volunteering at the Missionary Training Center.
