“Christmas at Home”
- Wisdom
and discernment in all the plans and decisions to be made.
- Extra
strength for the girls and me as we plan and make preparations.
- For
the wife of our City Mayor to be able to attend, as well as First Ladies
of neighboring towns.
- For
the wives of the former mayors, and military wives to be able to
attend.
- For
extra finances for the cost of the Banquet, Hotel reservations, and plane
reservation for our guest speaker.
- Preparation
of the special music, and choice of each song.
- For
our guest speaker, my brother, Tommy Ashcraft, as he prepares his message
for the evening, and for liberty as he preaches.
- For
the Hotel staff to be reached with the Gospel.
- That
the Lord would prepare the hearts of the ladies who will be attending, and
for many to be saved, who will be an influence to others. We have had ladies saved in every
banquet for the past eleven years, including four former First Ladies, and
two military wives.
Note: This Banquet is an annual affair, and will be
attended by ladies, who for the most part are unsaved, and who either because
of religious preferences, or pressures from home, do not attend our
Church. The Lord laid these dear ladies
on my heart several years ago, and I am as burdened for them as I am for the
ladies in my Sunday School Class.
