DEVOTION: Ephesians 3:14-21 English Standard Version (ESV)
Prayer for Spiritual Strength
14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family[a] in heaven and on earth is named, 16 that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
20 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

Don't forget to bring your items from the list below for our shut-in care packages this weekend! For those of you that don't know who a shut-in is, it is someone who can't get out of their house or the nursing home by themselves and it is very difficult for them to go anywhere because of physical or sometimes mental limitations. Right now there are seventeen such members of our congregation, but more get put on the list on a regular basis. Please show them you love them by bringing some of these items to church this Sunday.
Word search and crossword puzzle books
Stationery and greeting cards (all kinds), and stamps for them to write to folks

Tissues
Mints (tic tacs are especially good)
