PRAYER FOCUS
Iglesia Vida de Fe
Portland, OR
Lead Pastor: Jose (Maria) Jimenez
PRAISE POINTS
We have been blessed with two new baby members in our congregation! And with that the two families decided to present them to our Lord and commit that they will guide their children in the path of the Lord.
We just finished doing our annual church yard sale with Grace Christian Fellowship, and it was quite successful. The funds went directly to both of our women's ministries, which we use to plan in the upcoming year.
In July we were able to celebrate with a birthday with one of our dedicated members who turned 90 years old! However, he remains as strong as a horse and is one of our oldest members, having been part of our family in Christ even before we were part of the Oregon Conference. He has always been a blessing and continues to be a blessing to us!
PRAYER POINTS
We ask for prayer for our upcoming 16th church anniversary in November, though our pastors have been in the ministry for about 21 years.
We continue to ask for prayer for our pastoral family, for them to continue to have strength from the Lord.
Pray for the fear that our Latin American community is facing right now due to our current government and immigration situations. We pray that the Lord gives strength to our families and their families.
Pray for the plans that we have to reach out more with Bible studies and community events.
