      the door will be opened.

      in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come,
      your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.




      Lord, I praise you. You are my God. Lord, hear the prayers of your children who are in need. I lift up to you everyday Lord all the prayers posted in this chapel. And, if it is Your will, Lord, let everyone who asks here, receive from You. Lord, bless everyone who stands here before you, those who are in need, those who are thankful, and those who are crying out to you. Lord, we need you in our lives to guide us, teach us and heal us. Lord, I ask this in the name of my Saviour, Jesus Christ, who died for my sins. Amen.

      October 2000

      Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
      On Sept 11, 2001 we were witnesses of pure evil on humanity and the civilized world. It was a deliberate evil act of destroying life and the freedom of living life without fear. This is obviously not from God but the enemy of God, the devil. The enemy has worked in these terrorists through the hatred of their hearts, and has spread and grown evil further than we dared to imagine. It is our time to rise up and fight this evil through the merciful heart of Jesus, who has won all victory through the sacrifice of his body and blood. I am asking that we sacrifice on the 11th of each month for 1 year, a day long fast with prayer as a nation to fight this evil. If you are unable to fast, sacrifice something else with your prayers. Throughout history fasting has proven itself to be very effective with God and his people. Offering this up through the body and blood of Jesus will allow the hand of God to work. No matter what the coming events may bring, be persistent and faithf! ul. The enemy will tempt you by many means to not participate. Use this as a measure of the effectiveness of your faith. Once a month, 12 times for one year. How hard can that be? Compare that to the price of the victums on Sept 11th had to pay. The enemy has challenged you as a soldier of Christ. What will your response be?
      Here is a suggested Prayer:

      Heavenly Father I offer you the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ in atonement for my sins and the sins of others. Have Mercy on us. Send us your angles to fight this evil in the world. Give our leaders wisdom and patience. Let us be persistent in our prayers to see your heavenly hand at work. Bring peace to the victums and their families who suffer from this evil. Lord Jesus glorify the father through our prayers and sacrifice in you, through you, and with you. Amen
