One thing that I have heard and have seen in action is that most people, even if they say they don't really believe in God... will normally let you pray for them. It's amazing the comfort and love that is shown when we pray for one another. Plus, amazing things happen as we pray and care for one another. Pray is often more about us adjusting our mindset, changing our hearts than really getting something from God.
So Let us pray for each other.
If you have pray request.... post it. I will try my best to pray for you and I ask that you also pray for the request posted on this site. Then as prayers are answered, you see God movel, resolution happens..... let us hear what happened. Pray is a great thing, hearing the outcome of our prayers is even a greater thing!
Here is our first request.... it comes from Capt. Slappy. Thanks Capt. for sharing the request.
REQUEST:
" I need everyone that’s willing to be praying that Qwest & the union reach an agreement on the contract. Right now the date for the expiration of our contract is 08-13-05. The company and the union are so far apart, I think it’s going to take a miracle to avoid this strike. I really don’t want to strike, but I will have to if the union decides to. If that’s what it take to get the message across to the company than I guess that’s what it takes. I am a little better off than some of the people in that I will get strike pay from the beginning of the strike vs. 2 weeks into to it, but it's going to be a killer."

Daily Rambles
Welcome, to my latest venture into cyberspace... "What's on my mind" pastors blog.
As you read my postings I hope that you will enjoy getting to know me as a real person. A person that laughs a lot, loves life to the fullest and is deeply and passionately committed to serving Jesus Christ and seeing Journey Church become a healthy growing thriving purpose driven church. A church that makes it very hard to go to Hell in Rochester and a church that creatively and lovingly helps people gain and better understanding and personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
I look forward to reading your reply, comments, thoughts and questions.
To begin this blog I want to share how excited I am to have served the past 13 months as the lead pastor / church planter of Journey Church. The people that have come into my families life, into the church family are simply amazing! Church planting is by far the best thing I and my family have ever done. It is also the challenging and consuming thing we have ever done. Being a church planter has helped to grow my faith and prayer life. It has also taught me a lot about myself as a teacher, leader, person, friend and follower of Christ. I am excited to be leading a church that is on the cutting edge of reaching people for Christ and developing "Fully devoted followers of Christ." When we thought of our catch phrase, "People on an adventure ton know the real God", we never imagined how incredible the adventure would be.
So I thank you for joining with us now as the adventure continues. If In or the church may be of any help, please contact us at anytime... Or be our guest Sunday mornings at the Chateau Theater in Rochester, MN.
