…and today was one monday that was perfectly awful outside – rain, snow, sleet and very cold. inside the fort was a different story. five servants painted, sanded, hung lights, munched on salad and brownies and shared stories. this extra room off the main worship lobby has now been transformed into a prayer room. new furniture is yet to come – and decades of historic fort mckinley photos will grace the wall on the left side of the room. all oak wood paneling was repurposed from the worship stage/pulpit area.
as the first prayer in the new prayer room, i downloaded the “prayer for darfur” from www.prayerinstitute.com and read it aloud at lunchtime. we know God hears us, even in a small room in a depressed city on a rainy monday afternoon.
