Prayer event for schools a blessing

I would like to thank the organizers of a very special event that took place at Bradenton Tropical Palms Auditorium on Aug. 4. It was a time to “Pray for God’s Blessing and Favor over all Manatee County schools and our children and those who serve in the education field.”

I thank each person who participated in the time of prayer, and it was a blessing when those in attendance were able to join in prayer.

To the young couple who joined me as prayer partners, I thank you and was blessed in our time together.
