Thank you so very much for your faithfulness in praying for the ministry of CEF® of WV. As we begin to navigate through this school year, we are already experiencing some ups and downs, stops and goes. Please pray earnestly for God’s wisdom and leadership to deal with these changes. We would love to have routine, but it is not looking at this time to be the case.

How the children need to hear about the Lord Jesus Christ, for salvation and that He never changes, “the same yesterday, today and forever.” There is consistency in Him. To those of us who have trusted Him for salvation, He is a ROCK!

Please note the praises and prayer requests below and share praise with God for what He has done and ask Him for the needs listed below. Thank you again for your prayers.
