Thoughts and Prayers for those in need

Thank you, Holy Spirit, for being with us. Thank you, Father, for the gift of your salvation borne and made manifest by your perfect Son in stripes and bruises and curses. Open our hearts this day to your Word, Lord, that it may go forth with us into a broken and dying Christ-rejecting world. Help us, Holy Spirit, to not only bear your light but to BE it to those who remain in darkness this day. May this prayer, submitted humbly, be pleasing to you, Lord.

Bless the men and women of this group on this day, a day you have given us to serve you. Help us to keep you and your eternal kingdom first in all things we pray.

In Jesus, holy name, amen.
