Prayer Requests

Please pray that new LIFT caregiver ministries would soon be started at Grandville Bible, Jenison Bible, and West Cannon Baptist Churches in West MI.

Please continue praying for established LIFT ministries at Calvary Baptist (Grand Rapids, MI), Grandville Baptist (MI), Calvary Baptist (Greenville, MI), and Temple Baptist (La Crosse, WI) - that they would effectively minister to those facing any health-related crisis as well as provide respite for their families and full-time caregivers.
