Resources, Programs, and Operations

Last month, L.I.F.E. Ministries shared its financial operations, new resources, and upcoming programs. All three of these, and continued operations of the ministry, require prayer and financial support. We thank those that pray with us daily at 9 am and/or 9 pm EST for this ministry.

L.I.F.E. Ministries has an operating budget of less than one hundred thousand dollars annually. We are spread about the country in mostly home-based offices. This ministry survives and flourishes on your prayers and financial support.

Each new resource that L.I.F.E. develops (Facilitator DVDs, L.I.F.E. Guide revisions, CDs) have an upfront cost and continued supply costs. This has allowed us to prioritize, fully develop, and professional create resources as finances are available.

Please reveal your grace to them through channels in their lives. Help them to feel the comfort only You can provide while they seek help. Father, L.I.F.E. group facilitators sacrifice their time to help others, may their seeds yield 100 fold. I pray that they feel the rewards you have in store for them. Today I also pray for group members, that you touch each of them individually and encourage them to live everyday in sexual integrity. Father, your servants in L.I.F.E. Ministries are answering your call. Please guide them coming days as the prepare for battle. And that all involved in building your Kingdom through L.I.F.E. are protected from attack, hear Your desires, and experience joy. Amen.

Thank you all for your heart for this ministry and the important work each of your roles, from group members to pastors, contributes to this ministry
