I have been experiencing some severe ocd/anxiety and I ask that the Lord would give me the right tools and an unexplainable peace. Additionally, I have some family moving here from out of state soon; praying for Gods provision, guidance, and safety in the process.

Please pray for me I was just diagnosed with urtrene fibroids I was already going to get a tubal ligation on September 22nd on my own choice but now I I might be forced to get a full hysterectomy I only 31 years of age I have only one child and I'm pretty scared.

My brother died Saturday night of a massive heart attack. He was only 45 years old. He has a wife and 3 sons and one grandson. He was not a believer yet had some sort of faith when he was a young boy and was baptized. Pray that this brings his wife and sons to the Lord and for Mercy for my brother and all of our family.

Prayer for a wonderful trip with my parents Tuesday through Thursday celebrating their 60th in San Francisco, God being in the middle of everything. Also, prayer for Matthew, his mommy is staying with him, that everything goes smooth from getting up for school, to football practice etc. This is her first time having to be on a schedule. Thank You!!!

Please pray for our missionaries to Slovenia, Ales and Whitney Lajar who sent the following updates and prayer requests:

• We are also starting our weekly Fusion ministry (it's a relational ministry to reach unsaved teens through music) on Sept. 1st, with Whitney and I taking key leadership roles. Whitney will be in-charge of all the songs and quire and Aleš is the spiritual director, making sure we are investing in these teens spiritually. Please pray for us to lead well, for many kids to grow spiritually and also for our three older kids who will be a part of the ministry. 

• Please pray for Urh and Doroteja. She was the Fusion leader last year, and has a due date for their second daughter coming up on Sept. 15th. Pray for a good delivery, a healthy baby, and a quick recovery for her, so she is not isolated like she was with their first daughter, who was a very sick and demanding baby. 

• We are receiving two new members into our outer core leadership team, who we will be meeting monthly as they grow in their leadership abilities and help serve the church in various ministries. So please pray for Nastja and Lorens, as they step into their new roles, to merge well with the rest of the leadership team.

• Please pray for the manifold weekly and monthly ministries that are starting in September: Worship Evenings, Home Bibles Study groups, Preachers club, Royal Rangers, Fusion, Youth Group, etc. Most of them have been on a summer pause, and are all kicking back into high gear in these next two weeks. Pray for the leaders and those who serve in various ministries, and also for those who are being served through them in our community. 

• Please continue to pray for wisdom as our future in the church building we have been using for the past 13th years is unsure. Our landlady put the house on the market for half a million (which is an overexaggerated price) and is increasing our rent. Pray that God opens doors, and shows us what to do. We are still prying about purchasing it, but not at that price.
