CALL TO PRAYER!
The Salvation Army Call to Prayer for December 29, 2011
Remember to thank God for the many who have given so generously to help the needy this Christmas. May God bless and touch them! “The reason for the Season?”…. It is Jesus!
Your Special Gift
What’s the most special gift you’ve ever received? Why was it special? Chances are this gift isn’t precious to your heart because it was expensive or unique. Instead it was likely something thoughtful from a person dear to you. Perhaps it met a need in a desperate time, brought comfort in a season of pain, or simply offered good memories of special times. The fact is, that our most cherished gifts are often those that come from the heart.
As Christians, we can offer such a gift every day, even to those we’ve never met. It’s the gift of intercession – seeking God’s aid on behalf of friends, strangers, and even enemies. Perhaps the greatest thing about intercession is that it doesn’t require any special talents or training, just a compassionate heart and a desire to see God make a difference in someone else’s life.
These Call to Prayer lists give each of us an opportunity to give the gift of prayer to those specially in need of our prayers. Give the gift of your prayer!

Thank you!
We praise the Lord for guiding and helping us go through the Christmas season smoothly! The Christmas kettle bell ringing went well - no big problems.

Praise the Lord for the generousity of our community! May the Lord continue to be with everyone (staff, workers, donors, and volunteers) who were directly involved with the Salvation Army Christmas effort! May they see Jesus and Jesus only through all the good that has been done! Indeed, to God be all the Glory and Honor!

TSA Western Territory Prayer Requests
Aloha friends!
Below please find this weeks "Call to Prayer" from Lt Col Morelock.
The following scripture was taken from a devotional that I receive each day - "Daily Light on the Daily Path". May these words remind you of God's love for you during this Christmas time. May the rich blessings of this Advent Season be yours today.
December 16
Having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which you have given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. I pray not that thou should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. - Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do whatsoever I command you. - A new commandment I give unto you, That you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
He which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. - Christ ... loved the church, and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word.
John 13:1. John 17:9,10,15,16. John 15:9. John 15:13,14. John 13:34. Phi. 1:6. Eph. 5:25,26.

TSA Western Territory Prayer Requests
Please remember to pray for each of our corps in the division as well as our officers, who are busy with the seasonal appeal and activities.
"Take time to be aware that in the very midst of our busy preparations for the celebration of Christ’s birth in ancient Bethlehem, Christ is reborn in the Bethlehem's of our homes and daily lives. Take time, slow down, be still, be awake to the Divine Mystery that looks so common and so ordinary yet is wondrously present.
"An old abbot was fond of saying, ‘The devil is always the most active on the highest feast days.’
"The supreme trick of Old Scratch is to have us so busy decorating, preparing food, practicing music and cleaning in preparation for the feast of Christmas that we actually miss the coming of Christ. Hurt feelings, anger, impatience, injured egos—the list of clouds that busyness creates to blind us to the birth can be long, but it is familiar to us all."
Edward Hays, A Pilgrim’s Almanac
May we not be too busy to take time to enjoy the beauty of this Advent and Christmas season.
May that be our prayer today!
God bless!

"Take time to be aware that in the very midst of our busy preparations for the celebration of Christ’s birth in ancient Bethlehem, Christ is reborn in the Bethlehem's of our homes and daily lives. Take time, slow down, be still, be awake to the Divine Mystery that looks so common and so ordinary yet is wondrously present.
"An old abbot was fond of saying, ‘The devil is always the most active on the highest feast days.’
"The supreme trick of Old Scratch is to have us so busy decorating, preparing food, practicing music and cleaning in preparation for the feast of Christmas that we actually miss the coming of Christ. Hurt feelings, anger, impatience, injured egos—the list of clouds that busyness creates to blind us to the birth can be long, but it is familiar to us all."
Edward Hays, A Pilgrim’s Almanac
May we not be too busy to take time to enjoy the beauty of this Advent and Christmas season.
May that be our prayer today!
God bless!
