• Holy and Gracious God, we give you thanks for the gift of life, for the gift of your Son, and for the gift of the Holy Spirit.

• Lead us through the trials, the suffering and sorrow, the challenges and struggles, the tired times and dark places. Be with those who weep or cannot sleep, those who have no peace and who seek release.

• Lead us with grace, with love, and with peace. Fill us with hope, with patience, with stamina and courage to follow Christ. Not the easy Christ, but the one who charges us to love and care for all of those around us, and to follow in His ways with courage and stamina.

• As we care for one another Lord, we remember those from our congregation and those who are in need of our prayers, we lift up: Alice, Delores, Phyllis, Sonja, Rose’s daughter Cheryl, Lee, Reta, and Andrea’s Mom Jan.

• We lift up Eugene Lorentz and pray for his health and healing.

• Lord I lift up this congregation as they move into the future and seek new leadership. I pray that they will find a loving and caring person to lead them and help them to grow into your love and purpose of reaching out to all those who wish to know you and follow in the ways of Christ.

• Transform us in your image, in your Son, in your Name. Transform us to grow, to understand, to see. Transform us, so that we can be made whole, and in that wholeness may we be the hands and heart of Christ.
