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 …

• A rough season that has led to an awakening in my spiritual life (Derek)
• Being able to be back at home with friends and family over Christmas
• Being overwhelmed at work but my boss helping me find a new role (James)
• My grandmother who was let out of the hospital before Christmas and being able to spend it with our family (Phillip)
• The beautiful growth of Vox since I have moved from Austin (Jenny)

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

Prayers of Petition. For …

• Many who are dealing with illness and loss this season and for God’s presence in the midst of suffering (Gena)
• The arthritis that my body suffers from
• Applying to grad school next fall and for peace in the process (Melissa)
• The families who have loved ones on the missing Malaysia Airlines flight (Becky)
• My uncle Joe whose health is declining rapidly

• The moving process as I leave my home for the last three years and not being sure of what’s next (Anslee)

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