As we continue to follow the Lord and open up our church to ministry and fellowship, I want to update you on our prayer meetings.
WEDNESDAY: Starting June 3rd, we are holding the mid-week prayer meeting in the sanctuary at 6:30 p.m. This is a physical meeting with hopefully a zoom option for those who cannot or chose not to attend the actual meeting. The zoom invite message went out June 2nd to QBC Update subscribers and church members.
SATURDAY: Our Saturday morning men’s and women’s prayer meetings are now physical. The Ladies are meeting in the church library at 7:00 a.m. and the men, in the gym at the same time.
SUNDAY P.M. Starting June 7th, we will be holding a concert of prayer in the sanctuary at 6:00 p.m. There will be no zoom option. The meeting will be Elder-led with a focus on Word-based, Word-directed prayer. We will break out in small groups in the sanctuary throughout the prayer meeting as we pray for revival, our nation, and God’s empowerment to know and draw near to Him. Our emphasis will include praying for temporal needs, but primarily spiritual petitions and seeking of God’s face. These meetings will last the month of June and include a church-wide fast, if you are medically able and desire to join. Jesus told us “When you fast” (Matthew 6:18a). A fast Jesus describes is normally an abstaining from food for spiritual purposes. For instance, fasting lunch and giving the time over for prayer. In this June fast, it will be an abstaining from food. The choices will be up to the individual as whether a full day fast or a partial fast of certain meals. Whatever you choose, the desire is to give the time normally for the meal over to prayer and the Word.
May the Lord find us a praying people, a fasting people, seeking His face for Himself, hope, revival of His church and the healing of our land.
In the affection of Christ Jesus and on behalf of the QBC Elders,
Pastor Jim
