Rev. David Andes Family Prayer Requests

  • David's Prayer Request: Pray for Holy Spirit energizing to finish the Spring ministry season strong. Pray for me as I represent South Carolina at the Special Olympics USA Games in Minneapolis June 20-27 as a tennis coach.

  • Katherine Praise and Prayer Request: Grateful to the Good Shepherd for giving me clarity, peace and an awareness of the Spirit as I spoke at our church women's retreat on Mar 20-21. Patient endurance and joy during this season of parenting up (mother - 92) and parenting down (Austin and Cameron). Pray that Shiloh Communities, will find favor with many.

  • Austin (27) Prayer Request-: Austin: Pray for the start-up non-profit, Shiloh Communities, as they raise funds. Katherine is on the board. The goal a few years down the road is to have a faith centered living community for differently abled adults like Austin. The organization has property and has hired its first CEO. Also, pray that Austin would consistently experience peace.

  • Cameron (23) Prayer Request-: Pray as he takes steps toward more independence from Mom and Dad! We pray that God will guard his path and enlighten his soul.
