Welcome to The Pulse! Please take a minute to check out what's happening in the life of COTA.
|
Please join your church in praying for the following requests for the life and mission of the church:
+ Please pray for the faculty of Carroll Middle School, that as our church serves them lunch
on Friday, they would see Christ's love through us. Pray that some of the faculty would decide to join us in worship and become part of our church. Pray for the Lord to bless and strengthen the Principal, Elizabeth MacWilliams. And pray that each Carroll student would flourish academically and spiritually.
+ Pray also for our Mission Partner, Young Life, as they reach out to high school and middle school students with the love of Christ, that many students would put their faith in Jesus for the first time.
+ Pray for the Christian church in Afghanistan, for God to give them courage to follow him, and that the Lord would reveal himself to new Muslims daily. Many who convert from Islam to Christianity are murdered once their extended families learn of their new faith. In other families, Christian converts are delivered to mental hospitals under the premise that no one in their right mind would ever choose to leave Islam.

THE FEAR FACTOR: HOW FEAR CONFINES OUR FAITH
He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?" ~ Mark 4:40
Fear. Most of us don't sit around thinking about what we are fearful of and why. But what if our fears actually prevent us from experiencing deep, abiding faith? Join us for this sacred time away as we discover how to think "outside the box" fear creates and begin to live fully by faith.
