CAST VISION for the upcoming school year;
CALL TO PRAYER seeking God’s Face;
COMMISSION school leaders and staff
Wendy has an amazing testimony and passion for our children and schools. She has arranged for several TPS and other area school administrators and faculty to be present. We are encouraging anyone who has a burden for our schools and children to attend as well, especially those of you who are ministering directly in the schools through after school Kid’s Clubs. What a great opportunity to give God the glory for what He has done and pray for the upcoming school year! You can learn more about Wendy’s ministry and register at her website www.keepwatchprayer.org A flyer is also attached so you can help spread the word!
