Two armored ambulances were delivered to Israel’s emergency services system by Samaritan’s Purse. Franklin Graham has promised to provide 20 more of those armored emergency vehicles as the Jewish state faces ongoing attacks from terror groups like Hezbollah and Hamas.
“I can’t replace life, but maybe in the future we can help save some lives…’ FG
BTW: The two vehicles (donated by Samaritan’s Purse) were given in memory of three American Israelis murdered by Hamas.
Praise! Salem Pregnancy’s recent ‘Steadfast Vision Dinner’ was a huge success!

See You at the Pole 2024
Student-initiated, student-led time of prayer
See You at the Pole was inspired by students in one youth group in Burleson, Texas, early in 1990. The teenagers felt led to go and pray at night at several area schools during a weekend youth group retreat.
1 Timothy 2:1 “I urge you, first of all, to pray”
Paul sharing with Timothy. Paul uses all four main Greek words for prayer translated into English as “supplication, prayer, intercession, and thanksgiving.”
Paul encourages Christians to pray for all people, including those in high positions and kings, as a way to lead a peaceful and dignified life.
