Important Prayer Meeting, March 7, 7-9pm

I want to invite all the members and regulars at Beth Israel to participate in a special prayer meeting on Wednesday evening, March 7, from 7-9 pm at the congregation.

This will be a time of consecrating ourselves to the Lord, freely offering ourselves in service to the Lord.

The Lord wants to take us individually, as families, and as a community to a higher level in our relationship with him, and in our ministry to him and his people.

If you are committed to the congregation, please adjust your schedule in order to participate. Cancel or reschedule anything which might conflict with this, so that you can personally be present for this holy time.

Please listen this week to my sermon, "Going to the Next Level" (Click below to listen)

from this past Saturday's service, in order to be prepared, along with the Saturday message from the previous week, "Strengthening a Willing Heart" (available at this Blog in a recent post).

Also, please dedicate Wednesday to fasting and prayer, so that you come ready.

See you Wednesday evening.

Rabbi David
