January 2022 Prayer Requests
ANNUAL TWO-DAY PLANNING MEETING
The CF leadership team will once again meet the week of January 17th for two days to reflect on where we’ve been and seek the Lord about where we will be heading in 2022 and beyond. Please pray for discernment and renewed vision as well as refreshment for our team! Pray for continued unity and health for leadership!
HIRING TO REPLACE APRIL
April Walker has been instrumental in helping organize our workshop communications. She has also helped provide and implement systems for our Coaching Certification Program. She has decided to return to her first love of teaching which means we are looking to find a replacement. Please pray that God would bring someone to not only fill the position but to expand on the work that April has begun. Pray for a great teammate to partner with Chad Hayenga in growing the Coaching Certification Program!
COACHING CERTIFICATION COHORT FINALIZATION
We will determine who is in our April cohort by mid-January. We have about 12 very qualified applicants along with a few others who are still “checking us out”. Please pray for God to move in the hearts of those still considering whether to apply for the training or not. Pray for guidance for CF as we make decisions about who to invite into the next cohort!
MARKETING DTC THIS MONTH
During January we will extend the invitation to thousands of parents to join the winter 2022 Discipline That Connects With Your Child’s Heart online course. We’ve worked with a marketing consultant to help us with our emails and our landing page. Please pray that the words we choose will encourage parents to register for the course.
SPECIAL REQUEST FROM CO-FOUNDER, JIM
Friends, I appreciate your prayers for my health. After several weeks of unusual discomfort and pain in my jaw I was diagnosed with Trigeminal Neuralgia; a painful disease affecting the nerves on one side of the face. It has become somewhat debilitating, affecting every facet of my life. Please pray for healing, wisdom about treatment, and ultimately peace that surpasses understanding.
PRAISE
We are still working on the final numbers for year-end giving but are seeing once again that God has been faithful to meet all of our needs! More people than ever before contributed in 2021 toward the mission of CF.
