To Be a Beacon of Hope

**Week 4 | January 22 - 28 | To be a Beacon of Hope**

We are over halfway through our 40 days of Prayer & Fasting… We’ve heard testimonies of miracles, strongholds breaking, God restoring, and his presence moving. PRAISE GOD! He is SO faithful and SO good. 

This week we are unashamedly asking for prayer for Hope Church. We believe it is important to pray for our church, our leaders, the team, and the efforts of our ministries. We know that this year is going to be a year of big changes and we are dependent on God to provide all we need. We need your prayers. 

**Our facility.**

- As we move into a more permanent home, pray that the church would continue to be a people, not a building. 

- Pray that our facility would be a blessing to us, our community, and region. 

- Pray that ministry would be facilitated within the walls at a great level. 

- Pray for a physical covering over our building, that all systems would work properly and no issues would arise. 

- Pray that the work of the enemy would have no authority in our building and the presence of God would abound. 

- Pray that the project and all aspects of it would be completed on time! 

**Ministries.** 

- Looking ahead to the opportunities that a facility will allow, we know there will be an increase in our ministries. - Pray for God to shape and form new ministries so they will be effective in reaching, caring and developing. 

- Pray for leaders and volunteers who will be called and invested into our ministries. 

- Pray for our existing ministries to have an increase of Kingdom impact. 

**Our staff & leaders.**

- Scripture makes it clear we are to pray for spiritual leadership, especially those who are teaching and preaching the Word. Pray for Pastor Kaleb as he leads our church, imparts the Word, and ministers around the clock. Pray for Kristy and the rest of their family to have protection, favor, and God’s blessing. 

- Pray for our staff to continue to execute the work of the ministry at a high level. 

- Pray for God’s hand upon the expansion of our team as we plan for and look for the next additions to our staff. 

- Pray for our leaders to continue to grow in both their faith and leadership abilities. 

**Provision.** 

- If you’ve been around since September, you know that we entered this fiscal year with faith for big provision. From the facility to our operational budget, we know that it will take resources to do all God is calling us to. 

- Pray that all our needs would be met as we enter into additional expenses with a facility of our own, more ministry initiatives, and prayerfully a growing team.
