Verse for the week:
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. John 14:12-13
Quote for the week:
"The evangelization of the world in this generation depends first of all upon a revival of prayer. Deeper than the need for men; deeper, far, than the need for money; aye, deep down at the bottom of our spiritless life is the need for the forgotten secret of prevailing, world-wide prayer." – Robert E. Speer

Please pray for the Nazarene church (our sister church) in Europe. Europe needs the Gospel - perhaps as much as many unreached people groups! These believers are strategically placed to make a difference. Please pray that they would have a passion for reaching out with the Gospel.
