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 …

• Getting well and having stamina back (Becky)
• Myles’ first birthday and being in our family (Jenny)
• A church connecting with a homeless man living under a bridge and bringing him back to his wife (Steven)
• My midweek group and the fruitful times we have had (Skylar)
• God bringing animals in our lives for a purpose and learning from our family cat who we lost this week
• Workers along the border that have some hope and inspiration and for the families living there (Catie)

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

• Chris and the doctors to have wisdom for his health condition (Gid)
• Myles’ birth family that they would be comforted this week (Jenny)
• My grandmother who had surgery for cancer
• My mother and step father that have a new life in California (Skylar)
• God’s timing and his gentle mercy to protect us and that we would have open hands with our resources
• Mondays and how it’s sometimes hard too see God work at the beginning of the week (Chris)
• My husband’s mom who might have ovarian cancer (Dolores)
• An upcoming vote on whether the workers along the border can have a union (Catie)
