Hi,
Here's another prayer request. No one I know is involved but they have cancelled all Christmas activities due to this and it will greatly affect the whole community.
Denise
Please pray for Lisa Rausch's mom, BETTY SUTOR, who is in failing health and will need to move to a full care nursing home.

39 In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town in Judah, 40 and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. 41 And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, 42 and she exclaimed with a loud cry, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! 43 And why is this granted to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 45 And blessed is she who believed that there would be[a] a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord."
46 And Mary said,
"My soul magnifies the Lord,
47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
48 for he has looked on the humble estate of his servant.
For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed;
49 for he who is mighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his name.
50 And his mercy is for those who fear him
from generation to generation.
51 He has shown strength with his arm;
he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts;
52 he has brought down the mighty from their thrones
and exalted those of humble estate;
53 he has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
54 He has helped his servant Israel,
in remembrance of his mercy,
55 as he spoke to our fathers,
to Abraham and to his offspring forever."
56 And Mary remained with her about three months and returned to her home.

YESTERDAY'S QUIZ: Who was Timothy and where did he live?
Timothy is the son of Eunice, a Jewess and a Gentile father. Born in Derbe or Lystra,,Lyconia. Converted by Paul and became a close friend and valuable assistant. Recipient of two of Paul's epistles, 15th and 16th New Testament books, I and II Timothy. The first was written to him in Ephesus, probably from Macedonia about 65 A.D. The second seem to have been written from Rome some three years later. They are called pastoral epistles because they are devoted to description of church work and earnest exhortation to faithfulness.

5 Consequently, when Christ[a] came into the world, he said,
"Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired,
but a body have you prepared for me;
6 in burnt offerings and sin offerings
you have taken no pleasure.
7 Then I said, 'Behold, I have come to do your will, O God,
as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.'"
8 When he said above, "You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings" (these are offered according to the law), 9 then he added, "Behold, I have come to do your will." He does away with the first in order to establish the second. 10 And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

YESTERDAY'S QUIZ: Who was Titus?
He was a distinguished Grecian who became a Christian convert and a companion of Paul in his trials and on his missionary tours. Paul wrote an epistle to instruct him in his ministerial duties in Crete, which were arduous on the account of the immorality of the people. Also it is the 17th book of the New Testament written about 65 AD.
As always, Thanks Don Nolte!
