Jesus said: “‘The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.’” (Matthew 9:37-38 NIV). For the next four weeks (April 23 - May 21), we're asking Parksiders to set a weekday alarm on their phones for 9:37 (am and/or pm) and to pray Matthew 9:37-38 for our church. To help, please download a phone wallpaper to have this verse at hand :)
