Mending A Broken Heart

Pastor Rich in conjunction with the Milltown Office of Aging will be running a six week Bereavement Support Group. It will begin Tuesday, April 9 at 10 a.m. and end on May 14th. Each session will be ninety minutes in length and will be held at the Milltown Senior Citizen Center on Violet Ave.

The six sessions will help those who have experienced a loss to better understand their thoughts, feelings and changes in their lives. These sessions are also for those who have been alongside family members or friends whose hearts have been broken, and have not known what to do or say.

Your Envelope Plus 1
How do you erase a $9,938 deficit?

One dollar at a time!

While consistory is very grateful to every member for your financial support we realize that for the church to do ministry we need increased giving from everyone.

We are asking every member to prayerfully consider increasing their weekly offering by one dollar

$1.00

One extra dollar could generate over $18,000 in additional income.

Prayer Proverbs

“The book of Proverbs is packed with wisdom about life and intimacy with God. This practice of asking God to instill wisdom into my day has made a difference in my prayers and in my life with Him. It can make a difference in your life as well.”

Cheryn Brewer

Here are ten sample prayers Cheryn shared in her article in the Mar/Apr issue of Pray magazine.

1:5 Lord, help me to seek daily after Your wisdom, as well as the counsel of those who are wise.

2:7-8 Lord, prepare me to be victorious as I walk in Your ways and surround me as a shield, protecting my mind from the influence of the world.

3:9 Lord, help me to honor You with all that I possess and give back to You a portion of all You give to me.

4:11-12 Lord, help me to walk on the path You have set before me, that my steps will not be hindered and I will not stumble.

5:21 Lord, You see clearly the path before me when the way seems uncertain to me. Help me to trust You
and choose what You lay before me.

6:23 Lord, Your laws light my path and Your Word guides me. Teach me Your commandments so I will walk in the way of life everlasting.

7:1-3 Lord, I hold tightly to Your Words, allowing them to penetrate my heart, for they are life to me, and I ask that they would cause my heart to follow after Yours.

8:17 Lord, help me seek Your Words and ways always, and value Your teachings far above earthly treasures.

9:9 Lord, give me the ability to always continue learning from You, and to share the wisdom You give me with others, in a way that they can receive it with understanding.

10:22 Lord, help me to see the blessing in all You do and all that happens in my life, that I may remember to thank You in all things.

Prayer of Jabez
O God, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!

So God granted Him what he requested.

Would you pray this prayer with consistory for the next thirty days?

Why? So that God would release a touch of heaven aroma into your life and the life of St. Paul’s. So that you and the church can tap into the extraordinary well of blessings God desires for us. So that you and I can emerge with a profoundly enriched experience of God’s person and power.
