. Thank you everyone for staying after our worship service last week, 11/14/2010 to pray for the persecuted church.  Quoting again Todd Nettleton, Director of Media Development for Voice of the Martyrs - USA: "As our staff meets with persecuted Christians around the world, their first request is that we pray for them." Last week, we remembered those who are suffering for the sake of Christ and supported them in a time of prayer.  Let's continue to keep them in our hearts and remember to pray for them and check for updates from time to time.  You can find them on www.persecution.com, or even search the internet and youtube - there's information everywhere. . Due to a limited amount of time, we only prayed for half the countries shown in the attached presentation.  Attached to this post are the full presentation and prayer topic notes, so that you can read about what is going on in the other countries, know their prayer topics, and keep them in your hearts and minds to pray for them.  .

Ahithophel’s Advice
2 Samuel 16:15-23
Key Verse: 16:23
Now in those days the counsel that Ahithophel gave was as if one consulted the word of God; so was all the counsel of Ahithophel esteemed, both by David and by Absalom.
