“Pillars of Hercules” is the name given to a natural rock formation on the coast in Freeman’s Bay. Pray for the person living closest to it to experience the freedom and strength of Christ, that far outweighs any mythological tale.
The Caribbean’s largest nesting colony of frigate birds is on the island of Antigua (sandals.com). The God Who sees each sparrow sees each frigate bird, and cares for people even more (Matthew 10:29-31). Pray for a Christian in English Harbour to be encouraged by this truth today.
