Huskie Prayers 2

I hope you are keeping NIU and our community in your prayers. Pray for the families of those involved, the student body, and all of the staff and faculty. Here is a list of the 5 students killed by the shooter:

• Daniel Parmenter, age 20, last of Westchester, Ill.
• Catalina Garcia, age 20, last of Cicero, Ill.
• Ryanne Mace, age 19, last of Carpentersville, Ill.
• Julianna Gehant (pronounced Ghee-hant), age 32, last of Mendota, Ill.
• Gayle Dubowski, age 20, last of Carol Stream, Ill.

We are talking to other churches about a response opportunity. We will give you more information Sunday.

Keep Sonya in your prayers too. She got into South Korea early this morning and flies on to Russia tonight.

Be Refreshed!

Proverb of the Day: Proverbs 15:13 A happy heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the spirit.

Scripture of the Day: Colossians 3:12-14 12 Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
