Barb, teaches the pre-confirmation aged kids and they started writing down prayer requests in their own notebooks in class. Two of the girls present were visiting their adult sister who is a member of our congregation. They had not seen nor heard from another sister of theirs for about a year. She lived up near the border and the people that had contact with her could give the family no news of her whereabouts or what had happened to her. Well, Barb’s class prayed on Sunday with these two girls that God would have their sister get in touch with them. That same night when the family was at home the telephone rang . . . it was their lost sister. Can you imagine the wondrous amazement and joy of those two 11-year-old girls at realizing there is a God in heaven who really hears their prayers?Todd and Barb Schierkolk
