North Edinburgh – We previously asked for prayer for Dawn, a mum of two of the kids who have been coming along to church. Last time we told you she had been doing Christianity Explored. Praise God that she has made a profession of faith! We’re so encouraged. But please pray for her in her walk as a single mum and new Christian. It’s tough and the battle is real. Pray her walk with Jesus will grow and flourish as she navigates everything the devil throws at her.
