Prayers for our People
God, creator of the land and sea, at times like this our boat looks so small and your ocean so large; protect us from wind, rain and sea surge, strengthen us to help others, and bring us to the day of calm weather and joyful hearts, this we pray in the protective name of your son, our Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Hear and answer the prayers of all who cry out to you for help, especially: Downs IV, Holden, Brian, Tyler, Barbara and Anne. Grant healing and recovery for Georgianna, John, Peg, Mary Jo, Annette, Lisa and Michael. Give peace and strength for those going through cancer treatments, especially Jane, Bill, Downs III, Victoria, Alex, Connie and Douglas. Visit and comfort all who are under the care of skilled nursing, especially Timothy, Barbara, Kim and Mary Ann. Be near to all who are in hospice care especially Beverly.
