Special Prayer Request
Please take a moment to pray for a young
man from Lower Township who was in an accident in
Cape May on Tuesday. John Shelton IV,
who is 18 years old, was riding his bike when he
had a collision with a car. He is in the trauma
unit at Atlanticare Regional Medical Center.
John was seriously hurt and desperately needs our
prayers, as does his family during this difficult
time.

Job
16:19-21
Even now my witness is in heaven; my advocate is on high.
My intercessor is my friend as my eyes pour out tears to
God; on behalf of a man he pleads with God as a man pleads
for his friend.
People are like
stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun
is out, but when darkness sets in, their true beauty is
revealed only if there is a light from within. —Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
