PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE


Dear Father, Son, and Holy Spirit:

We pray for those whose lives closely touch our own that they may always be in our hearts and have joy and happiness in their lives. We pray for those who trespass against us that their sins may be forgiven.

We pray with thanks for families, neighbors, teachers, teammates, and all those in our community who support the well being of others, especially the sick and the needy.

We pray for those who suffer the loss of family, friends and neighbors that they may be comforted by those who love them. Help restore peace and harmony in their hearts. Let them discover Your love through the care and support of others.

We pray for the mission of the church; our Session and Gene Anderson.  We pray for all who proclaim the Gospel to the ends of the earth and for all who seek the Truth.

We pray for all the leaders of the world that they may make wise choices for everyone and that they may lead us to honor one another and serve the common good.

We pray for your wonderful creation, the Earth, and its streams, trees, mountains and plants. We pray that the animals of the Earth may freely enjoy these resources.

We pray for those who do not understand or have not found Your love, that they may seek a deeper knowledge of You. May Your love find those who need You most?

In Jesus’ name we pray.  Amen.
