Praying for Grandparents and relatives.

Received a text for one the students at Gilbert Christian Schools (Brielle) and she was able to pray during the Thanksgiving meal that her and her extended family had. She was asked by her grandma to pray and that meant so much to her to be able to express her thanks to the Lord and to ask the Lord to bless the food and fellowship.

Her joy concerning this experience during the Thanksgiving dinner kicked off in my mind the importance of praying for grandparents and relatives of the students who have shared over the years their stories. Many grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles, cousins, dads, moms, brothers, and sisters have no idea that these students at Gilbert Christian schools spend countless hours (in totality) praying for those they love and respect. The least we can do is continue praying for these dear ones that the Lord has laid on the heart of each of these students.

Thank you Brielle, Amanda, Justin, Cassidy, Andy, Trae, Cody, Sarah, Kyle, Parker, Jarette, Joe, Abi, Micah, Jordan, Benji, Nate, Tiana, Claudia, Olivia, Madie, Raquel, Brendan, Brannon, Jaxon, Meg, Christian, Jimmy, Zane, McKayla, Becka, Caleb, Rhea, Kaitlyn, Savannah, Kari, Will, Faith, Gabrielle, Shannon, J.T., Jacob, Sarah, Nicki, Paige, and many, many more who have shared from their hearts those who Jesus so burdened.
