Mission Prayer Focus Please pray for the work of Samaritan’s Purse with Syrian refugees. Among the items they provided are food, clothing, heaters, and shoe boxes. The greatest desire of this organization is to let people everywhere know that God loves them and sent His son, Jesus Christ, to die for the sins of the world.
At the request of the Board of Elders of Friedland Moravian Church, to preserve the dignity of worship, please silence your cell-phone, refrain from taking pictures and do not bring food or drinks into the Sanctuary.
