In 2005, we are focusing on teaching God's character by
studying one name of God from the Old Testament per
month. We incorporate elements from that name in each
week's activities during the month and will review
previous month's focuses as well.
Also, in 2005, we are keeping track of every request and every
answered prayer. This is a year of miracles, signs and
wonders and we want our expectancy to grow with each
passing answer. |
