Since I wrote my last Prayer Update (Feb 24), Linda and I have done a good bit of traveling. We were in Ottawa to join our daughter on “The Coldest Night of the Year” walk (a fundraiser for a downtown ministry drop-in centre). I also had the privilege of speaking to a group of pastors in Ottawa to talk about the ministry of Heritage. Next we drove to Lancaster, PA to visit our oldest son, Ryan and his wife Jenny. On the way home, we stopped in Niagara Falls where I spoke at a mission conference for Grace Gospel Church.
This weekend, Linda is overseeing a course on writing Bible Study Curriculum. The course is part of the Graduate Certificate for Women in Ministry and is taught by Dr. Phyllis Bennett. Please pray for the dozen students who are learning to write Bible study materials for their churches and ministries. Pray also for strength for Linda; she was ill with a fever and cough most of the week and still needs to regain strength.
- On Sunday, I am scheduled to preach at Stoney Creek Baptist Church in London, Ontario. I’ll be joined by a musical team from Heritage who will lead the worship in song. Please pray for a fruitful time of ministry.
I’d also ask you to join me in praying for Pastor Daniel Winter, one of our Heritage Board members, and a dear friend in ministry. Daniel was recently in the hospital with a serious illness. He’s home now but still needs our prayers as he recovers.
Thank you for standing with us by kneeling in prayer!
Rick and Linda Reed
