Pray for business owners and families facing financial stress

Jesus, we thank You for Your faithfulness in how you have guided and equipped people in their jobs and have provided in the past. It can be scary and overwhelming not knowing how bills and obligations will be met or to not be able to provide for families. As people feel financial strain during the uncertainty, bring them comfort and peace, reminding them that You are there for them. Provide for them in their times of need.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.—John 14:27 (NIV)

Pray for Indian Lake Camp + Christ in Youth (CIY) as they make camp adjustments.

God, thank you for the opportunity to hold these two amazing places and people up to you. We pray for Indian Lake and CIY today. We ask that you would be with them as they make the hard decisions to adjust the camp schedule this summer. There is something so special that happens at summer camp and we are so thankful to be a part of a church that knows camp is important. We pray for Indian Lake as they are adjusting to not having campers on their grounds this summer. As they're making this hard choice and as we support them, we ask that you hold them close. We ask for your presence through this time as they navigate what this summer looks like for them. We also pray today for the team of people at CIY, as they run at full speed to make sure CIY can still happen this summer. As they help churches go digital, hold physical events, and as churches make the hard decision not to attend CIY this summer. We ask that you be with them. We know lives are changed at summer camp and our part...

Pray for those who are mourning and grieving the death of a loved one.

God of compassion, we lift up those who are mourning and grieving the death of a loved one during this time. Surround them with your presence and fill every longing during this time of separation. We ask that you would hold them close to your heart in the moments when they feel helpless, alone and caught up in deep sadness. God of comfort, in their grief, would you shelter them in the shadow of your wing. Ever-faithful God, help them to feel your love through these words of hope to all your people from the prophet Isaiah: "Because you are precious to me, because I love you, there is no need to be afraid, for I am with you." Father, in this time when families and friends cannot draw near to one another for comfort, we ask that you would be their strong rock, their comforter, healer and friend. Draw them close to you, Lord, and help them to sense your deep love and promised presence. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. -Matt...

Pray for parents as they navigate summer and new summer camp plans.

We first thank you for health, provision, and for our families. At this time, Lord we come before you, and lift up in prayer all parents of kids and students. Especially the ones who were looking forward to sending their kids to camp this summer. Lord, we ask you to give them wisdom and the right words as they break the news that summer plans have changed too because of COVID-19. We ask you to prepare the kids & students’ hearts, so they can hear and understand that it is for their safety and it is just temporary. Father God, we ask you to bless parents/caregivers with creative ideas that will not only provide fun for the kids/students, but also will allow the family bonds to be strengthened. Let us all see this time as an opportunity and not an interruption. An opportunity to do what we haven’t been able to do previously during summer because of a super busy schedule. Let it be the birth of new family traditions, devotional time, book reading, game nights, backyard bbq,...
