Christ Church Schenectady Prayer Table Report, May 8, 2010, 9:30 -10:30 AM Torre Bissell & David Carlson
+–indicates received wooden cross made by Dennis Adams of North Carolina
+ Faye — she thought she would have to give money to get prayer – we assured Faye that it is free; she asked us to pray for her as she just moved to a new apartment
+ Jamey – we called out to this man from across the street – he crossed the street and asked us to pray for his wife + Brenda and daughter + Sade, and half-kidding he asked us to pray that he would win the lottery; we prayed for the Lord’s provision for him and his family
+ Charles – we prayed for this man for his sore foot, and for his health in general, that the Lord would drive out all illness from his body; he thanked us for our prayers and said, “at least someone’s looking out for me today.”
Robert — believer who also stopped for prayer last week on his way to catch a bus; he works a second job on the weekends to help pay child support for his teenage son who lives in New York City; he was upbeat and joyful and gave thanks for his family and the Lord’s provision
+ Willie – this man was pushing a cart with bottles and cans; asked prayer for his mother (Etta) who has cancer, and for his own life – he is homeless, staying with a friend for now; Torre felt led to tell him that the Lord wants him to quietly confess his sins; after a minute of silence, Torre led him in a prayer for forgiveness; Willie returned later, on his way back from the store, and said he felt today is a new beginning for him; he hopes to come to church tomorrow
+ Heather — teenage girl with orange hair – she seemed pleasantly surprised that we wanted to pray for her – she asked prayer for “strength”
+ Maurice — a man hurrying to the bus stop – said we could pray for him if we hurried; we prayed for the Lord’s provision for his life
+ Judy — was walking by as we were breaking down the table and chairs – she did not think she needed prayer because she prays on her own every morning; but she did accept a cross
