Do you have a Prayer Request?
Then please let the EE's pray for you!!! Just
send your prayer request to Vikki & Peter!
Prayer Mailings are sent out daily to Annie's Email Encouragers.
What is an EE? They are a large group of Christian men and women
who would be glad to pray for you and send you an email of encouragement.
You won't be added to a mailing list and you can even send in an anonymous
request. The Lord knows all the details and we don't have to worry about
you telling them all to us. A short prayer request is usually the best. He
will answer your prayers. It might be YES or NO or WAIT
but He will always answer or prayers IF we ask Him to.

Are you Feeling a Little Overwhelmed?
God's Word has the answer to all your questions!
