It’s WEEK 7 and the conclusion of our Devotional Series:
Serving with Courage and Compassion!

GOD IS THE PROVIDER

Scripture: Philippians 4:19

Devotional: God never asks us to carry His work alone. He provides strength for today, wisdom for tomorrow, and resources for every need. Our confidence rests not in our abilities but in his faithfulness.

Prayer: Lord, provide for every ministry need. Send faithful partners, open new doors, and remind your servants that you are their strength, refuge, and provider. Amen.

Thank you for following along with us! As we pray for disability ministries around the world, may we remember that every active service reflects the heart of Jesus. Let us walk in faith, trust God‘s protection, and extend his love to every person he places in our path.💙

Near the end of each year, we set aside a day to dream, plan, and prepare for what’s ahead. Today was that day.

As we look toward 2027, our team is laying the groundwork for greater impact through Luke 14 Exchange—creating more opportunities for connection, belonging, and support for individuals and families affected by disability.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors and supporters, we’re excited to see how God will work in the year ahead as we continue to encourage, equip, and serve our community.

It’s WEEK 6 of our 7-Week Devotional Series:
Serving with Courage and Compassion!

A LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

SCRIPTURE: Matthew 5:16

DEVOTIONAL: Simple acts of kindness can reveal the love of Christ in powerful ways. A welcoming smile, a helping hand, or a compassionate word can become a testimony of God’s goodness.

PRAYER: Father, let every act of service shine Your light. Use disability ministries to bring hope, encouragement, and the love of Jesus wherever they serve. Amen.

Look for our final WEEK 7 next Monday, and let’s strengthen, encourage, uplift, and support one another on this journey through faith and compassion.💙

Prayer: Jesus, strengthen believers who face challenges for following You. Fill them with courage, confidence, and an unshakable trust in Your promises. Amen.

An invitation from Candy Nixon: “I wanted to share this opportunity with you. Perhaps you know someone who could benefit from this support, or maybe you feel called to revisit these conversations yourself.

Whether this would be your first time or your fourth, you are warmly welcome.
There are losses we carry quietly, the ones that do not come with casseroles or sympathy cards. The slow, tender ache of living losses can be difficult to navigate alone.

If this is part of your story, I would be honored to offer a gentle place to land.
Grieving Through Living Losses

Free 4-Week Online Class
Wednesdays, 12:00-1:00 PM ET
October 28, November 4, 11, & 18
Location: Zoom

Together, we will create space to learn, reflect, breathe, and find support among others who understand.

To register or learn more, please email: [email protected]

You are not alone. There is hope, healing, and companionship for the journey. I look forward to seeing you.

Warmly,
Candy Nixon, ACC Coaching for All Seasons Coaching for every season of life’s journey.”
