Happenings on the Jesus Saves Social Network - March 11th!


Be Ye Holy!
"But ye are a chosen general, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praise of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light;" 1 Peter 2:9.
We are now in the Lenten season that began with Ash Wednesday. In Western Christianity, Lent is 40 days of fasting and repentance in preparation for Resurrection Sunday (Easter), this year on April 24th.The six Sundays in Lent are not counted among the 40 days of lent as each Sunday represents a "mini-Easter," a celebration of Jesus' victory over sin and death.

We invite you to join us in fasting and prayer for God's will to be done in our lives, families, churches, schools, communities, and in the nation. We have had some great discussions on the Jesus Saves Social Network on the Daniel Fast during Black History Month. We offer it as an option to encourage healthy eating and prevention of diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, and chronic diseases that plague African Americans at alarming rates.

You might also consider giving up something very important to you for a 24-hour or 12-hour period each week, (cell phone, computer, television, text messaging, shopping, etc.) and giving that time to the Lord in prayer and Scripture meditation. Be ye holy even as God is holy! Your are a royal priesthood, a chosen generation!

Read Esther 4:15-17, 2 Chron. 20:3-30, Neh. 9:1-37, Matt 4:1-4, Luke 2:37, Acts 13:2-3, and all passages on fasting and prayer.

Important Dates:
•March 9 - Ash Wednesday
•April 17 - Palm Sunday
•April 21 - Maundy (Holy) Thursday - (Observance of Lord's Supper, the foundation for Communion ordinance in the church).
•April 22 - Good Friday
•April 24 - Easter Sunday (Orthodox Christianity - Eastern Orthodox Churches)

Birthday Celebration for Angela Lee Price - March 16th!
Hi Everybody!
Join me in a birthday celebration for my wife. March 16th is Angela's birthday. It's the BIG ONE. She is reaching a milestone in her life. She received her first letter from AARP. Needless to say, she is a little choked up over it. Help me make it a great day for her. Please stop by the network and show her some love on Wednesday, March 16th. You all mean a lot to her. It would mean so much to me and our family to have you share in this special birthday with us.
Thanks, Bill Price

Just A Little Talk With Jesus Makes It Right!

The songwriter says, "Just a little talk with Jesus makes it right!" What are you talking with the Lord about these days? These days are trying, and tearful for many people. These days are filled with trial, temptation, testing, and travail. I am convinced, though, that just a little talk with Jesus makes it right!

As Christians, it is our assignment to stand in the gap and keep the "prayer wheel turning," as the senior saints use to say, by remaining vigilent in praying for God's Kingdom to come, and His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.  We need you to pray with us for the lost, sick and suffering people in our homes, schools, churches and communities.

We are having an awesome discussion on The Daniel Fast on the Jesus Saves Social Network. I tried it recently and was truly blessed. Consider joining the Jesus Saves Social Network and reading the comments under the Forum section on the Daniel Fast, and join us in fasting and prayer the next 40 days leading up to Easter, Resurrection Weekend, April 24th. 

We need your gifts of intercession on this network. Please post your prayers, and prayer requests in The Prayers of the Righteous group, and praise reports in our Praise Break group. Pray for us and we will be praying for you! Please keep that "prayer wheel turning" because just a little talk with Jesus makes it right!

Marc Lamont Hill - Our World With Black Enterprise - Black Incarceration Crisis

Dr. Marc Lamont Hill, of Our World With Black Enterprise speaks to a panel about the mass incarceration crisis that is affecting black males. It helps to underscore and provide context for why Jesus Saves Ministries assists former felons in Kentucky in getting their voting rights restored through our Ex-Offender Advocacy Initiative in partnership with St. Stephen Church. To date, we have helped approximately 30 former felons regain the voting rights, as well as assisted a number of ex-offenders in getting their criminal records expunged. If you would like more information, contact me, Min. Angela Lee Price,  at jesussaves1@insightbb.com or aprice@ssclive.org, or by calling 502-583-6798, Ext. 6804.
