AS WE REFLECT on the words of Philippians 4:6-7 which say, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.", we wish for ARC to approach the Lord in unity and daily prayer. We ask that you pray for our church ministries, leadership, and our continuing transition process. To help guide our prayers in this season, we've prepared a calendar which is in your church mailbox today. It lists specific concerns for each day. We so appreciate your prayers and having each of you as a part of the ARC church family!
