A Half Day with God at Bethesda

On Saturday 10 September 2005, as part of the Alpha National Initiative Prayer Blitz, Ray and Lorna Brűlé opened up Bethesda Renewal Centre for a wonderful afternoon where we walked their layout of Paul's second journey, visiting the "cities" where he founded churches, and praying at each one. Desite the beautiful weather, it was sad that the only pilgrims on this modern journey were the Brűlés and the Copples, but for us it was pure joy in the glory of the Lord.


What we prayed for:
  • Katrina victims and sufferers in the weather disasters and air crashes afflicting the world.
  • In grateful thanks for the protection from such disasters that we in this area have enjoyed.
  • Why fast?
  • Thank you for the Internet, for technology, and for the glories of your creation down to a spider's web beneath our feet.
  • For our leaders: country, province, city. So many who are hurt rely on leaders; better to rely on God.
  • For Aloha Canada leaders: Sally, Susan, Don, Bill, Lyndell, Karen, Barrie and all others who are full time on Alpha ministry, as they carry the burdens of this great enterprize for God.
  • For Alpha prayer requests, (particularly Rob & Theresa)
  • For Kanata Community Alpha, its guest, team, and intro dinner Sep 13. KCA was the originally envisioned by Ray.
  • For ourselves, families, friends, businesses, finances. Remove any residual resentments Lord that we may harbour.
  • Bethesda Renwal Ministries, its leaders, its financial welbeing. For the Good 'n' So club and all those in debt wanting to get out
  • Before the cross: for the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus by the Father in atonement for our sins.
