This Week’s Prayer Focus
Members of the Charlottetown Christian Reformed Church: This week we
pray for each other as members of the body of believers here at the
Charlottetown CRC. Specifically, we pray for our ability to minister to each
other and to our neighbours. Please, refer to the monthly prayer brochure
for specific daily prayer requests online at www.charlottetowncrc.org

Praying for Kentville CRC
Although we are few in numbers and at times the question is asked, is it
worth to keep going as a church. The answer is yes. Our Website analytics
show that about 800 people a month from all over the world are listening
to our services. And the numbers are gradually increasing. So, let us pray
for those who are listening on the web. Some might not have the freedom
to meet.
