Daily Prayer at 12PM by the People of Grace Fellowship Community Church
This week’s daily prayer for January 16 to January 22 is from Mylene Foo.
You are God,
God with us,
God of light.
Give us courage like Joseph on the dusty road,
trust like Mary amidst life’s chaos.
Shine hope into the cracks of our lives and our world.
Lead us, Jesus, into the new life You are making.
Amen.

Questions to Consider for the Deeper Dive
1. How were you made aware of God’s presence this past Sunday—perhaps through a song, the sermon, communion, a conversation with someone at coffee hour, etc.?
2. What in the sermon particularly inspired, encouraged, or challenged you?
3. Beyond Sundays, in what ways has your worship experience been impacting your relationship with God, neighbor (near and far), and/or yourself?
Contact Pastor Al or Randy Chang if you have any questions.
