God, thank you for giving us Jesus as the perfect example of loving God, neighbor and enemy. I trust you to be with us as we try to emulate him and to forgive us when we fail. Amen.

Over the next 21 days, Aldersgate UMC is invited into an intentional time of prayer for ourselves and our community, You will be receiving a daily email (FaceBook blasts too!) with scripture, questions, prayer, and a daily challenge to use during your personal prayer and devotional time. The prayers used will come from a new resource by Justin LaRosa, a UMC Deacon from Hyde Park UMC in Tampa FL. The resource is called “the Jesus Challenge” - 21 Days of loving God and Neighbor. Some other prayers will be adapted to include specific prayers for our Aldersgate community.
I pray that you engage in these days of prayer as a time to go deeper in your relationship with God and in prayer for the Aldersgate UMC and the community of East Brunswick! I look forward to hearing about your experiences on Pentecost Sunday!!
Blessings Pastor Erica
