  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Emergency Prayer!!

This request is from my friend. she's been caring for the baby of one of the ex-drug addict women that she ministers to. They agreed that she would keep the baby girl for two weeks while the mom finds a home that is not a crack-house nor infested with bugs, but now the mom is sort of freaking out and making accusations that my friend has stolen her children. She's worried that children's services will see her home and take her kids away, but the home is so horrible that it's unfit for children to live in.

Please pray for everybody involved. My friend is really concerned that the children might be going back to the same drug-filled, roach-infested apartment.

Please pray for God's Will in the outcome of this situation for everyone involved with Kailynn and her two brothers. The mother has started behaving hostilely toward me and blaming me for her 5 year old not being in school. I'm sure she wants somebody to blame in order to explain away her behavior to Children's Services. She thinks she's pregnant again and planning to have an abortion if she is. LONG story short -- I gave her three options yesterday, two of which included keeping one or two of her children for a year as long as children's services was involved. The third option was that she take all three of them back not later than this Friday, 1 Nov. as originally agreed upon. She called me last nite apparently after reading it wanting them back today. She's planning to meet me at the Doctors office (Kailynn has a cold and has been vomiting ... no fever, I think it my be a hernia) at 1PM on Needmore. I'll be taking all three children with me and passing them over to her at the doctors office.

(the mother of the children) has been known to fight in the recent past. Please pray for a hedge of protection around me and the children.
Thanks - more later.

Update:

My friend took the children to meet their mother as planned, but the mother never showed up. Mel (my friend) had Children's Services meet her there just in case, and they took the children. The mother made calls to Mel, but the phone numbers she left are no good, so Mel couldn't call her back. Mel is really bummed about the way things turned out. She thought the mother was ready to be a good mother and wanted to give them a hand. But the mother, though she had a good support system and plenty of incentive, decided to blow it off.

Mel's also worried because the mother called children's services and made threats against her and the other people in the ministry that was trying to help her.

Lord, thank you for people like Mel who inspire us all to work and act in your name!

We know that you will keep everyone (especially the children) near to your heart and they will not be abandoned.  If it is your will please open the mother's heart and let your spirit flow inside her...let her see the truth.

Keep your spirit in those children (and all children) let them remember, if only by a tiny imprint on their souls, that Mel and the others cared about them; that they mattered.  Maybe that tiny imprint will keep those children in Your grace.

We pray this in the name of Your Son, Our Savior, Jesus Christ!

Thank you Lord, You are awesome! :bow:

Amen! :pray:
