The church will receive 2 cents per gallon on every gallon that a church member buys from Martin Oil Company throughout the year. A check will be given to the church every 3 months for all gallons purchased by church members. (For example, if Member Y purchases 250 gallons in 3 months, the church will receive $5.00.) For questions, see Nora Moore.
Prayer
God calls us to pray about everything! We tell God exactly what we want. We pray the particulars. When the wedding ran low on wine, Mary wasn't content to say, "Help us, Jesus." She was specific. She said, "They have no more wine" (John 2:3 NIV). A specific prayer is a serious prayer. If I say to you, "Do you mind if I come by your house sometime?" you may not take me seriously. But if I say, "Can I come over this Friday night? I really need your advice." Then you know my petition is sincere. When we offer specific requests, God knows the same. So, offer yours! - Max Lucado
We ask you to pray to God for the Donation Methodist Church and its congregation. We are asking that we all take a few minutes every day at 4pm to ask for God's help and guidance.
