Request for Prayer for our Pastor
Many of you are already aware, from reading the Founders Ministries Blog, of the unusual providence of July 14, 2008. Our Senior Pastor, Tom Ascol, received a shock from a lightning strike as he reached for a car door. You can read about the account on Tom's blog, "A Display of Divine Greatness and Mercy," and a request for prayer on Tim Brister's blog, "Please Join Me in Praying for Tom Ascol." We are thankful to the Lord that He spared Tom's life and that the doctors who are caring for him expect a full recovery. We ask that you join us in praying for Tom as he recovers and rests during the next several weeks.
See our Associate Pastor's (Tim Brister) blog for updates on Pastor Tom's condition.

Our God is good and merciful in all He does. May He use this difficult providence for His glory and for the good of His Kingdom.
