Dockyard - Nose in the Carpet


Prayer.

It's a big deal. Whenever my family gets together, at least part of the time is spent in prayer. It's because we believe that prayer works. That God hears us - that he cares! And he answers too! So we pray.

Of course, before this adventure began there was a lot of prayer. When God opened our eyes to the possibility of new churches, and newly changed people throughout Detroit Metroland, we prayed. Mary, McKenna and I had a saying: "Noses in the carpet". That meant, faces down to the ground as we talked with God - dreaming of what he might do and how he might use us. He answered prayer after prayer. We still have many prayers left to be said, that's for sure. It's a good thing we still have carpet.

Do you know God hears you when you pray? Doesn't matter what you're praying about - do you know that God cares? I mean - he cares about your biggest, life changing decisions, and he cares about the little details of your life. So, join us - get on your knees, put your nose in the carpet - and pray. And he will hear you - and he will answer!

And if you'd like, we could use you in our Dockyard. The typical dockyard is not front and center. The dockyard keeps the boats running. Usually, it's behind the scenes. When people think of boating, they think of speed, of sun and relaxation and comfort. But in order for boats to work, there must be work done on the boats! That happens in the dockyard.

So join us! Email me at pmcrydo AT gmail.com or our new address: crydo.harbor AT gmail.com. If you request the dockyard, I'll add you to our "once a week" email list. You'll get the inside scoop - short bullet points - of what to pray about next. And, you'll hear a few praises too - for God is good and God answers prayer!

Keep praying! Noses in the carpet!
