Please keep Pastor Hale, his family, and the Zion Missionary Church uplifted in prayer. Anderson - Pastor Lawrence Anderson's daughter, April, is dealing with a rare blood disorder and they are requesting prayer for healing power. James 5:14-16 14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. 16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Pastor David L. Stewart would like to thank you all for your prayers. He is recovering from my illness and getting stronger every day.
