"And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
  But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
  But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
  Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven,Hallowed be thy name.
  Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
  Give us this day our daily bread.
  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
  For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
  But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses".

Mat 6:5-15

Prayer in School

Now I sit me down to school
Where praying is against the rule,
For this great nation under God
Finds public mention of Him odd.

Any prayer a class recites
Now violates the Bill of Rights.
Any time my head I bow
Becomes a federal matter now!

Teach us of stars or pole and equator
But make no mention of their Creator.
Tell of exports in Denmark and Sweden
But not one word on what Eve did in Eden.

The law is specific, the law is precise,
Praying out loud is no longer nice.
Praying out loud in a public hall
Upsets believers in nothing at all.

In silence alone can we meditate,
And if God should get the credit, great!
This rule, however, has a gimmick in it;
You’ve got to be finished in less than a minute.


So all I ask is a minute of quiet,
If I can work a prayer in, then I’ll try it.
If not, O Lord, this plea I make,
Should I die in school, my soul you’ll take.

Terrible rain and windstorms greatly damaged 7 Chapel’s in Malawi and 5 in Mozambique. As it is still raining every day right now during the rainy season they are not able to worship together until they get some kind of temporary cover for the structures. A tarp type covering would cost about $85.
