Pastor Prayer Time at Pregnancy Resource Center

Today I was privileged to be invited to "Pastor Prayer Time" at the Pregnancy Resource Center of Henry County. Karen Garrett (left) invites a different pastor from the Henry County area to come at 9:00 AM each Tuesday and pray with the staff. I am very embarrassed to tell you that I was supposed to attend last month, and let it slip my mind. I felt terrible, but Karen was gracious and merciful and allowed me to reschedule. Thank you Karen. One of the prayer needs today was for the personnel committee to be able to find a replacement for Donna Barney (second from left). Donna is the current CEO and Executive Director. She is retiring and moving to the Warm Springs, GA area. Please pray that a suitable CEO/ED will be found. Pray also for Donna to be able to get her house sold in this soft market.

The other two ladies there for our prayer time were Jennifer (second from right) and Pat (far right). All of these ladies were great company, and prayed with such a sweet spirit. Any pastor would have enjoyed sharing an hour praying with such tender hearted ladies. While we were waiting for everyone to get there for our prayer time, a lady came in to do some court ordered community service. She asked Karen how busy the center was, and I heard Karen tell her that they served over 1600 clients in the last year.

It excites me to think how many innocent children's lives may have been saved by this wonderful ministry. Before we went over the prayer list we read Psalm 116 together. Donna remarked how wonderful it was that the "cup of salvation" was mentioned in the Psalms so many hundreds of years before Jesus told us that the "cup" at the Lord's supper represented his blood shed for us. The Pregnancy Resource Center is located at 3834 Jodeco Road in McDonough, in this beautiful home converted into office and ministry space. Please put them on your prayer list and remember them in your giving this Christmas season.
