Summary: Christian service is really hard work. It’s taxing on pastors, worship leaders, their families, and the church body supporting them. Churches that provide services to those in need, like housing, food, and other basic necessities, all require dedicated individuals working to make it happen. It is a tough and tiring job. I’ve heard many pastors and volunteers say they have become burned out over the years. They have felt as though their efforts weren’t working, or with a lack of funding they weren’t able to continue. These vital services churches provide in their communities need our prayer. What churches and outreach programs support your community? How can you specifically pray for them this week? At the Luis Palau Association, we know there are people praying for us. They pray for our finances, they pray for God’s hand in our work. And we see the results of this prayer. We know it is happening. This week, pray for the churches, pastors and community volunteers in your town or city. With our prayers they can continue to serve in Christ’s name.
