As I sit here preparing this newsletter, there is fresh snow and sunshine outside. I was out there an hour ago and the temperature was just right to enjoy being outside. I know that there are a lot of crazy things going on in our worlds, but God made this world and wants us to enjoy it. He made this day. Don't forget to enjoy it. Don't miss the little blessings that exist around you. 

1. We had a Vision Retreat with our Board and Ministry Leaders last weekend and there was some great learning and great feedback received that we are looking into already!

2. I have seen that a number of people have signed up for the prayer event this Saturday, and some of them even took the inconvenient hours to pray!

3. I also noticed that a lot of peopler we actually reviewing our mid-year business update on Sunday and getting a better picture of what has been happening at AWC.

When someone has cancer, marriage trouble, some crazy drama at school or work, we know there is very little we can physically do to change those things to help the people in need. So, we say something like, "I'm sorry I can't help, but I will pray for you." Why do we say it like that? That wasn't Daniel's approach to situations. When we look at his story, we find Daniel saturated his life in prayer because he knew the truth of the matter:

We can't help anyone without God's intervention.

Daniel 2:9-23 (17-18 Key Verses)

We invite you to join us, to gather together as the Body of Christ, in prayer for our area!

This will be a 24-Hour prayer vigil event, hosted at the Amherst Wesleyan Church, for churches in the
region to come together to pray in unity for our geographical location – to push back against the work
for the enemy and strongholds in our region.

Location: Amherst Wesleyan Church, 6 Maltby Ct, Amherst NS
Contact: Jenna Gould ( email: jthompson.rmt@gmail.com / phone: 506-261-1481)

The 24-Hr period will be divided into 1-Hr time slots - you can sign up on the provided sign-up sheets
for one slot or more if you feel led to do so! The objective is to have the full 24 hrs covered in shifts of
united prayer.

A night of worship. Songs, Prayer, and creative elements will be used to set aside time to simply focus on God and give Him glory.
