We then sang “The Unclouded Day.” Our last congregational song was “At the Cross.” The youth sang “Love Lifted Me.” Bro Billy asked for prayers. There were so many and as always, we pray for all in the church and the community. Our Bible study was from Matthew 6:1-15.  Bro Scott Fulcher led our prayer and blessed our bible study. Prayer should be a private matter between you and God. Very good study. Bro Bobby Doughty led our closing prayer, until we meet again.
