ACTS 24-Hour Prayer event a success

Pella — A Call To Serve (ACTS) Ministries of Iowa hosted a 24 hour prayer event on Saturday, March 31, until Sunday, April 1, at the Third Reformed Church Lighthouse.  The event was a success with over twenty-five participants, and numerous other people committed to praying for ACTS that day that were not able to attend the event.

-praying for the local communities and families that ACTS serves,

-planting seeds for ACTS’ Seeds 4 Needs Garden which is starting this spring,

-praying for support and vision for ACTS,

-praying for the upcoming Spring Service Surge in Knoxville on May 12 (https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SpringSurge12),

-praying for unity of purpose in communities to better bless people in need,

-praying for blessings for other local organizations and ministries.
