Starting Right

It is a regular part of a Pastor's job to pray for people when he is asked to.  However, how often do we pray for our pastor?  The stress on a pastor and his family can be enormous and today more and more pastors are leaving ministry because of their congregation's pressure and demands.  Today we make a simple request.  Pray for your Pastor.   We would love to hear your comments.
