As a community, we can support and celebrate with each other through prayer. Join us in praying for those both spoken and unspoken during Sunday liturgy.

Prayers of Thanksgiving. For …

• Being able to gather as a community with differences.  And through reconciliation in God, bringing us together. (Gid)
• Experiences on a daily basis that allow us to know others with differences. Thank you for the opportunity to get to know them. (Dawn)

… let us bless the Lord.  Thanks be to God.

Prayers of Petition. For …

• Strength, grace, perseverance, patience in relating and reconciling as a community. (Gid)
• Seeing the greatness embedded in all of us. (Mick)
• The members of congress working and communicating together. (Fred)
• The victims of the shooting in Arizona. Comfort for families and healing for those with injury. (Rachel)
• The family who lost their father over the holidays. (Evan)
• Helping us be more united. (Skylar)

… let us pray to the Lord.  Lord have mercy.
