Moms in Touch is an opportunity to meet with other moms to pray for your
children. (www.momsintouch.org). To briefly describe MIT: Each week moms
usually with kids in a common school or schools meet to pray. In that time each
week, we also learn more about an attribute (characteristic) of God and we praise
Him for it. We also silently confess our sins and thank God for His answers. Then,
we put before Him our requests. We pray for the specific needs of our children and
we also pray scripture verses over our children. For example, we would pray, “May
my children (by name) love the Lord their God with all their heart and with all their
soul and with all their strength.” Praying scripture over the lives of our children is
very important because God tells us in Isaiah that His Word does not return void.
When we pray scripture over our children, we know that we are praying for God’s
will to come forth in the lives of our children. Scripture teaches that sometimes we
don’t have because we don’t ask. Moms in Touch is a place that helps us be
accountable to pray diligently over the lives of our children. Perhaps, you have never
prayed in a group. The same could be said of many people now in MIT. Is God
nudging your heart to be a part of MIT to pray more diligently for your children? If
so, please contact Lisa Reid, LReid@triad.rr.com (854- 3087), Guilford County Area
Moms in Touch Coordinator..

library volunteers know during library hours; or you can write the items down in the blue “Wish List” notebook on the library
counter.
RESHELVING ITEMS – Please place returned items in the Book Return basket on the library counter instead of reshelving the
items yourself. A library team volunteer will note that the items were returned on our library checkout records and will make
