Prayer Across America: Week 4

Hello everyone!

Here we are entering our fourth week of traveling across the country. Mark and I started in Bonita Springs, Florida (I’m pulling the travel trailer and he is riding his bike), and right now we are in Huntsville, Alabama. Tomorrow we will be entering the great state of Tennessee, so we are excited to get another state ticked off our list! So far we have travelled 750 miles! As I drive the trailer, I pray each day. I am thankful for those who are praying along with me. Feel free to share this post with anyone who you think might be interested in praying for America.

Prayer Requests for Week 4

  • Pray for Tennessee teen Elizabeth Thomas who was abducted by her teacher and was missing for a month. She has been found and the teacher arrested. It sounds as if her family life was already chaotic before she was kidnapped.
  • Pray for revival in Tennessee and in the U.S. in general.
  • Pray for reconciliation in families.
  • And of course, pray as the Lord leads you, and please post your prayers in the comment section as you feel led.

Faith-Friendly State

I would like to add that as we have traveled through Alabama, I have been encouraged by the displays of faith I see in this state. Churches are everywhere! I see scripture posted in public places. It’s not unusual to see many churches in the areas we travel though, their beautiful spires rising above the trees, often three or four of them very close together, like the one in the picture below.

I’ve enjoyed the churches I’ve visited while we’ve been here. Here are some pictures I’ve captured that reflect a bit of the faith culture I’ve witnessed thus far.

Pray on!

    Jane, I will be praying for each of those things. I have also been praying for you and Mark. For your safety as you travel and that the Lord will use you both mightly on your journey. I pray he puts in your path the people he knows each of you can affect in some way.

    God bless you! I admire you so!

Psalm 23 Remix

July 9, 2020 By MaryK Leave a Comment

Psalm 23 is one of the the most well-known parts of the Bible. People who do not claim to be religious can quote parts of Psalm 23. Christians have become so familiar with this beloved psalm we almost cease to hear it. What we need is a Psalm 23 remix- a fresh look at an […]

Just Jesus

I love Christmas. I love the displays, the music, the food and the lights, but this was overwhelming. Despite the fact that it was night, I needed my sunglasses. The light emanating from the Christmas display of a neighboring house was overwhelming. Think air-traffic control tower…light house…l.e.d. headlights straight to the retinas. I’m sure this[Read More…]
