We are thanking the Lord for you.
The Southern Pounding was such a blessing for the couple who moved into a house last month. The Lord's lambs couldn't believe how loved they are. God is so good!
One of the Lord's lost lambs fell asleep with a cigarette in the lamb's mouth and was burned. The lamb is doing well. The burns are around the mouth and neck. Praise the Lord no one else was injured and these injuries were minor. All of the lamb's belongings were lost including the Bible given for the lamb's birthday.
One of the Lord's lambs was searching for a roommate this week. A missionary from another homeless ministry contacted missionaries from CitW asking for a roommate for one of the Lord's lambs. "Ask and ye shall receive" The two met, but found separate places to stay temporarily. God is so good!
Several of the Lord's lambs went to work orientations this week. Seasonal jobs begin this month. There will be another orientation next week for those who might be interested in a seasonal job. Praise the Lord for the opportunity for those to work.
The Church in the Woods director attended a meeting this week with social services. For the next two weeks, social services, with the proper information, will pay one month's rent or one's utility bill. This is such a blessing with so many lambs finding housing this month. With this the Lord has opened the doors for so many. Please keep those seeking a home in your prayers.
Please continue to keep one of the Lord' lambs in your prayers, as well as his family. The lamb was hospitalized Wednesday for liver complications.
Wednesday morning one of our Thursday evening lambs was hit by a car. We are thanking the Lord that missionaries had given the lamb their address. It was the only information the lamb had. The police came to the home to inform the missionaries and obtain any information they might have. Last night the lamb appeared close to death, only alive through life support. Missionaries prayed with the lamb multiple times yesterday. Today the lamb continues to improve and was stable enough to undergo surgery for his broken leg. Please pray the Lord will continue to reduce the swelling on the brain. The next 48 hours are crucial. The lamb is legally blind from a head injury ~ two years ago. Please pray for healing from both injuries. Please pray for the Lord to find the lamb's next-of-kin.
Tonight the Lord's lambs were told of their friend who was hit by the car. So many had seen the news report, not realizing the person was their friend. The news was taken so many different ways - some cried, others lashed out, and still others just shook their heads. One lamb was so enraged; the lamb left the study, to return at the end for prayers and the pouring of love and comfort. Please keep these friends lifted in prayer as they learn to lean on the Lord in times of despair.
We were able to celebrate the release of two of the Lord's lambs from jail today. When they went into jail there was much anger for what seemed to be an injustice, but came out with the Peace of the Lord.
The group began a study on humility and servanthood tonight. After the study a pair of lambs bought Easter Eggs and candy. The group filled the eggs for an area church's Easter Egg Hunt.
Someone read the article in the Cary paper months ago and is doing spring cleaning. She called a missionary to donate men's clothing. What a gift for so many!
An area church contacted missionaries with food to donate. What a gift! The two area churches that donate food had no leftovers this week. God and His perfect timing and provision!
Missionaries were told tonight that the ministry has use of a building in Apex with two other ministries. The ministries plan to get together to see how they can utilize the building best to glorify the Lord. God is so good!
A missionary was asked to read an article in the Holly Springs Sun, not be able to find the article the missionary read of a church is starting a monthly Soup Kitchen. Praise the Lord. The church was contacted and wants to participate in the April 17th meeting.
The staff from the Cary YMCA contacted missionaries with Church in the Woods ministry this week. The YMCA is interested in serving the homeless of Wake County after attending a service project with the homeless in DC. They plan to participate in the April 17th meeting, as does the Carying Place. God is so good!
Volunteer needed:
The Church in the Woods ministry is asking the Lord for a volunteer to work with the city of Raleigh property list. The mayor has told the ministry it can have a building from the city property list. One just has to be selected. The volunteer would be asked to narrow the list to 3 pieces of property so the ministry could select one.
Services or meetings:
Celebrate Jesus' resurrection with an Easter service at Eliza Park, April 16th. Set-up begins at 9:30. The Church in the Woods ministry asks people to bring food to share. Contact Alice, 772-7050, or Al and Cindy Boyce, 387-0921 or cboyce@nc.rr.com, for more information.
Representatives from eight (possibly ten) Cary/Apex ministries are asking to unify as the Body of Christ serving the homeless and the poor of Wake County. These representatives are asking others to attend this meeting, April 17th, at Hope Community at 7 PM. If your ministry is interested or your church has a local social concern type program, please feel free to attend. The group feels lead to utilize the gifts and talents the Lord has given to each ministry to bring Him the most glory. Other ministries are encouraged to attend.
Church in the Woods is having its first wedding April 22. Missionaries are getting together with the bride-to-be this weekend with a wish list. If you feel the Lord's calling to donate wedding items or wedding planning expertise please contact Cindy Boyce, cboyce@nc.rr.com .
