NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER: Tomorrow (Thursday) is the National Day of Prayer for our country. There are still some slots available in our “prayer chain”, so if you have 15 minutes on Thursday that you could give to praying for our nation, you may still call the church office to sign up (or, of course, you can pray whenever it is convenient for you.) There are also a number of community-wide events which are listed below:
National Day of Prayer
Thursday, May 6th
Schedule of Events
Prayer Vigil – 3:15am to 5:59pm – First Baptist Church
Lets come together and create a constant line of communication from Harrisonville Missouri directly to the Lord God Almighty! Sign up at your local church or by calling 380-3733.
Prayer Walk – 7:00am – First Baptist Church
Two walks will be offered this year. Choose either:
a leisurely 30-minute walk around the square of Harrisonville
a moderate paced 60 minute-walk expanding past the Harrisonville square
Parents Prayer Time – 1:00pm to 3:00pm – First Baptist Church
Do you have small children at home? Do you feel like you never get a chance to just sit and talk with God? Well this is your chance. Our nursery will be open to provide FREE child care while you sit in our quiet, peaceful sanctuary. Take this opportunity to commune with the Father who loves you so much. Whether your time is filled with tears, laughter, praise, or even a wrestling match, you’ll enjoy the company – and so will Immanuel.
Prayer Meeting – 7:00pm – First Baptist Church
We will conclude our day by Praising and Worshiping The Lord through Prayer. He hears us whenwe call to Him. Come and spent time praying and praising Him for all the blessing He pours out.
NEED A MOTHER’S DAY GIFT? Purchase a Cornerstone cookbook filled with great recipes from our own chefs! Pick one up for only $5.00 at the table in the foyer at the church. Proceeds will help our teens attend the Challenge conference.

Word for the Week
“The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His being,
sustaining all things by His powerful word. After he had provided purification
for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
Hebrews 1:3
Quotes to Ponder
“I have read in Plato and Cicero sayings that are very wise and very beautiful; but I never read in either of them: “Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden.”
~St Augustine
