Morning Meditation Psalm: Psalm 145
Song: “Lord Most High”

Community Outreach

“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under foot. You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 5:13-16)

Pray for:

-Increased gospel-influence on the community
-That LCC would be a ‘city on a hill’ to the glory of God
-Burden on the hearts of this church to show the love of Christ
-Growing passion for God’s Kingdom
-Continued effective connecting with our neighborhood
-Our recent outreaches to have a lasting impact
-Increase in finances so that we can continue our effort to reach the community
