Most Holy God, this week we are reminded that what we cannot do in our own power, you will enable us to do through your grace. Open our hearts and our ears to listen to and follow the paths you are opening for us. Even in this frightful time, we can act with love, grace, and purpose to begin good changes in this world. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
We pray for the church. In our time of being physically distanced, help us to remember and prayerfully support our brothers and sisters who must worship you in secret at the risk of losing their jobs, property, and sometimes even their life. We ask your continuing blessings on our presiding bishop Michael Curry, our bishop Robert Wright, our assisting bishop Don Wimberly, our retired bishop Neil Alexander, and our priests Scott and Sue. Bless the Nonnemakers at Virginia Theological Seminary. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
Almighty God, we pray for our president Donald, for the leaders of the nations, and for all in authority that they may compassionately work for justice and peace. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
We pray for all members of our armed services; protect and defend our troops in deployments in combat zones. Pray for Reyna Cruz, Jamie Davey, Jordan Davey, Brett Turner, Jennifer Parrish, Bart Ziccardi, Robert Rish, Kayla Ziccardi, Frank Caruccio, Joseph Lorenz, Wayne Lovell, Jessica Stephens, Mitchell Stephens, Brandon Richards, Drew Camp, and Jason Gregoryk. Guide, guard, and protect all law enforcement and first responders including Don Scalia. Please cover all health care workers with your blessings of protection and strength as they work to save lives including Dr. William Koeppel, Marika Csatary, JM Kidd, Chloe Gedney, Jackie Hayes, Dr. Barbara Camp, Roxanne Hall, Susie Murray, Susan Smith, and Candler Kimsey. They need our prayers, thanks, and love in facing the uncertainty of this continuing pandemic. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
We pray for health and healing for all creation. Keep us steadfast in prayer and obedient to warnings to continue protecting lives through wise actions. We pray for the sick, the lonely, and caregivers. Let them experience health and wholeness in your healing presence. Pray for Carol, Helen, Kelly, Bob, Lloyd, Stephen, Gil, Jennifer, Kevin, Jackie, Kelli, Luci, Sharon, Billy, Helen, Genny, Gordon, Jon, Opal, Glenda, Diane, Chris, David, Charlene, Scott, Genie, Dennis, and Sue. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
Most holy God, we pray for Hannah Kidd Kogel as she awaits the birth of her child. We pray for newborns, infants, and children of all ages. Protect them from every danger and sickness. Restore all children separated from their families. In this time, shield all children with safety, love, and peace. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
Compassionate God, comfort all who mourn for loved ones lost to sickness, accidents, and injustice. As we recognize our own fragility, help us to realize and celebrate the sacredness of every life. Pray for all who mourn. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
We praise you for the beauty and wonders of creation, begging your forgiveness for our callous use and abuse of them. Lead us to recognize the unique beauty and potential in every person. Awaken in us a spirit of encouragement for our fellow travelers through this life. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
Gracious God, we are joyful and thankful for these among us celebrating birthdays, including Fletcher Nonnemaker, Finley Nonnemaker, Patty Kidd, Brian Johnston, and Nancy Phillips, and those celebrating anniversaries, including Christy & Bentley Harris and Suzanne & Gary D'Abate. Bless their accomplishments and their plans. Give them joy as they celebrate these landmarks in their lives. Holy Lord, hear our prayer.
