Faith Covenant Church

Dear Faith Covenant Family,

This week you should receive a letter from the Stewardship Committee. Between now and Stewardship Sunday on May 3rd, we invite you to prayerfully discern how you will steward your time, talents, and treasures in our common life and mission.

Sharing your giving and service plans with the church helps us shape ministry for the year ahead. If you already know how you would like to offer your time and talents in the coming year, please indicate that on your stewardship planning card. If you need more time to prayerfully discern where you will serve, please check the box indicating that and be on the lookout for our ministry interest survey that will be coming out shortly. On the back of the card, you may share how you plan to give and if you need any assistance with setting up your giving.

If you can't be with us in person on May 3rd to bring your card forward, you're welcome to drop it off at the church, mail it in, or fill out the [electronic stewardship planning card].

We are excited for the year ahead, and for how God will stir our hearts for his kingdom and his glory.

Let us know how we can pray for you or share how God has been answering prayers in your life. Click CONNECT below!

LIFE AT FAITH

Prayers for our home, as we have had multiple items break, and a scare of someone potentially breaking into our home. Prayers that our home would continue be a safe place for us and won't become too much of a financial burden. - Caleb M

Prayers that I would walk in the authority God has given me within my classroom that I will not allow students who do not have good intentions pull the rest of the class down and that I can through God put a stop to their negativity and disruptions in these last weeks of school. - Stephanie M
Those recovering from surgery. - Ray & Jane H
Peace, grace and kindness among peoples around the world. - Judy D
I am having knee replacement surgery on Thursday. Please pray for a successful surgery and a quick recovery. - Barbara P
Healthy pregnancy and professional growth. - Nathan & Chelsea F.
Praise for the progress Susan A is making post-accident and surgeries. She has been able to take steps without her walker and is using her cane. She is very thankful for all of your prayer support.
For all of the unspoken prayers, praises, and petitions of the heart.

Brad & Lucie Kaspar serve with Josiah Venture in the Czech Republic. They equip and encourage youth leaders to reach out to students who do not know Christ and meet with students who are eager to grow in their faith.
Please pray:

For students from the Exit Tour outreach, like Dan and Ondra, to connect to Christians from the town of Krnov like Tobias
For wisdom and direction with trainings we have coming up.
For quality time and good discussions as a family in April.

Send Brad & Lucie a word of encouragement www.bkaspar@josiahventure.com
