As a praying church, we continually uphold each other, our community, and our world, in prayer.
If you have a prayer request during the week, don’t hesitate to contact one of the Ruling Elders—Bob LeSuer, Amy Stearns, Zack Harvey—or Pastor Benj (724-221-2595, pa****@*****ie.org). Be sure to indicate if you’d like us to keep it confidential, or if it should be shared. And, be sure to follow up and tell us how God answers our prayers!
July 2026 Monthly Prayer Focus
During July, our Monthly Prayer Focus will center on the act of praying. A recent magazine article likened every scroll on our smartphones to a prayer—not a religious prayer, but an act seeking truth. A scroll on our smartphones offers this plea: “Please show me what is real. Please show me what I should care about.”
As we pray this month:
- Ask, do we concentrate on our prayer lives with the same intensity that we concentrate on our smartphones?
- To make our prayer lives more meaningful, what changes do we need to make?
- If on our smartphones we pay attention to dozens of things that have nothing to do with the quality of our actual daily lives, shouldn’t we pay more attention to things, such as prayer, that will affect our eternal lives?
- As we pray throughout the month of July, let’s focus on giving concentrated attention to the nature and quality of our prayers.
