Fall Team Availability
One way to make sure you are considered by the next rector for a team position, if you haven't already done so, is to sign into the www.gnvdc.org website and create a user profile. One of the check boxes on your profile asks, (are you) "Available to serve on a Team?" Make sure to check the "Yes" button. A list of community who indicated they are available to serve is able to be accessed by the next rectors.
Yet another way to communicate your willingness to serve, would be to:
Take this availability survey
This is something new we are trying out this fall. All information will be forwarded to the fall rectors. No need to create a user profile, just fill out the survey and your information will be forwarded.
You can check website for team dates & locations.

Prayer Requests
Donald Bush, GNVdC #12
Please keep Donald's family and friends in your prayers as they mourn the loss of Donald. Donald was recently diagnosed with stage four liver cancer.
Tom Smith, GNVdC #44
Prayers of consolation for Tom Smith and his family on the passing of Tom's father. His father suffered a massive stroke on Friday 7/21/11 and passed that morning. His father was 86.
Dawn Dunigan, GNVdC #17
Please pray for my daughter, Hannah, age 21. She has been in the Navy for almost 4 years, but has had health issues for more than a year. She was recently diagnosed with degenerative disk disease, and will be discharged from the Navy. What we don't know yet is if it will be an administrative discharge or a medical discharge. Admin. discharge- she will lose all benefits after August (ie. medical, access to base and the NEX, etc.). She is in constant pain, and has other health issues that still need to be addressed.
John Knapp, GNVdC #32
John's nephew, Sean Knapp, was in a very bad motorcycle accident and needs prayer. He is in stable condition with a broken hip/pelvis which will require surgery.
Helen Hiser, GNVdC Weekend #8 - UPDATE
Bob & Vin Hiser requests your prayers for Bob's mom, Helen, who has recently had a stroke and is suffering with health issues at age 91. It has been difficult for the family in this time of failing health & suffering.

Please keep Terry and their family in your prayers as they mourn the loss of Terry's mom.
