The Shorey home will be open from 10:00-11:30AM tomorrow for a time of prayer regarding today's tragic events. Please feel free to come. If you don't know our address feel free to private message me.

Here is my prayer for all my flock this sad and heart-wrenching Saturday evening as we see reports of organized evil; the spewing of hatred from evil hearts against dear brothers and sisters and neighbors for whom Jesus died. Dear Lord and God above, We cry out to you precious Father, for on this day we have been reminded again of how filled with hatred the human heart can be, and of how long and long and long and long human suffering can last. Please be with our brothers and sisters who on this day have once again witnessed unashamed and unblushing hatred, in a nation that refuses to let it go, and insists on deepening and strengthening its grip. Please be with our flock o Lord; those precious ones for whom your dear Son died, but who on this day feel unsafe, unprotected, unaccepted; still very much assailed and despised. Please give peace in the midst of the storm, grace in the shadow of bigotry, endurance under the burden of oppression, courage in the face of attack, and Christ-like love in the presence of evil. And be with our small flock o Lord to give us sympathy in the soul, empathy in the heart, unity in the cross, and deep, deep solidarity in the struggle. Please help us to draw near to one another. Please help us to come to one another's side and stand together as one against the evil. Please help us to lay aside any and all our assumptions and opinions and see that right now our love and our care must be strong, and long, and deep; with neither wavering nor silence. Please help us dear Father for who is sufficient for these things? Who can bear them? Who can endure them? Who can overcome them? Only you. We groan and wait and wait and groan. Come Lord Jesus. Your children need you now. In Your strong and mighty Name, Amen
