We entrust into your unfailing care, merciful God:
Those for whom our prayers have been requested: Steve, Jean, John, Sue, Case, Nancy, Gordon, Virginia, Diane, Bob, Maria, Christine, Benjamin, Tim.
Those who are anxious, lonely, or despondent; for the unemployed, underemployed, and destitute.
Our nation and the world: the President, Congress and Supreme Court; our Governor, Mayor and the leaders of the communities from which we come; members of our military at home and abroad; and all those elected or appointed to positions of public trust.
With thanksgiving: our health care professionals, first responders, essential workers, and farmworkers.
Those who have died and those whom we love but see no longer.
Almighty and eternal God, ruler of all things in heaven and earth: Mercifully accept the prayers of your people, and strengthen us to do your will; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
