This Month's Prayer Needs: March

At City Church we strive to be a community of prayer dependent on God for His purpose, protection, and provision. Please join us in praying for these community members and partners this month.

EVERYDAY DOXOLOGISTS: STAY-AT-HOME PARENTS

Please pray for parents whose daily work is in the home, that God would encourage them in the value and significance of their role and provide for their daily need for strength, patience, and wisdom in interacting with their families. Pray that they find refreshment daily through the Word, prayer, and fellowship with believers. Pray that God use them in their neighborhoods and children’s schools to be a light and a witness to others.

LOCAL MISSION PARTNER: YOUNG LIFE AT VCU

City Church is excited to partner with Young Life at VCU! VCU Young Life is a community of leaders and volunteers reaching, loving, and sharing the good news of Christ with the students of Virginia Commonwealth University. Please join them in praying for the process of hiring a full-time staff person; they hope this person will begin working in the fall of this year. Pray for more volunteers to come alongside the new staff person once they are hired to provide a team to assist and support the new staff person as they set the strategic direction of the ministry in the early days. Please also pray for the ministry’s support team as they continue to navigate the challenges of COVID while working to reach out to newcomers. Finally, please pray for the VCU community as a whole as students adjust to missed college expectations, friendship changes that have occurred, and difficult learning environments.

GLOBAL MISSION PARTNER: JESSICA FORBES

Jessica Forbes is a City Church ministry partner currently serving in Prague with Serge’s DoSlova Team—“DoSlova” is Czech for “in the world.” The DoSlova Team is planting a new church in Prague that emphasizes outreach to Czechs and long-term residents of Prague. By worshiping in Czech and English, and seeking to have worship and church life shaped by Czech culture, the team hopes to be a church where Czechs feel comfortable exploring the Christian faith, and are ultimately raised up to lead and plant Czech churches. Please pray for Jessica and her current work learning Czech and helping with women’s discipleship, brothel outreach, and anti-human trafficking efforts around the city.
