  • In Jerusalem a 15h Century Wall Cross graffiti case gets solved as Germany’s institutionalized churches suffer an attendance meltdown.

Let’s PRAY together,


  • Lord, you have taught us even through your death and Resurrection that we are to live in peace with others as much as it is within us and to spread your Truth and Hope even with those who seek to persecute, destroy and silence us. Grant us Your wisdom, protection and strength to do as you have taught us daily.

  • Help us to keep our eyes and ears open in situational awareness so that we are ready to respond with Your Hope in all the days you have ordained for us. 

  • Thank you for sending your Son Jesus as the Atonement for our sins and for His mercy bestowed upon us each day.

  • Lord, despite the evil we see all around us, help us not to grow weary in praying, caring and sharing Christ in our home, church, city and beyond for Your honor and Glory.

  • Father, our hearts long to see multitudes of Your children come into Your Kingdom as a direct result of our obedience as your faithful disciple. AMEN!
