Pray for leaders who will be serving in the new camp realities/roles.

Father, thank you so much for providing a community that prioritizes caring for the next generation; helping them stand on our shoulders. We are so grateful for those in our community who do this in regular ways and also in ways through their daily living.

Specifically, we would like to pray today for all of our leaders who are stepping up and serving kids and students in this new reality this summer. Give them energy and creativity they need for each day. Give them endurance and patience to deal with unexpected challenges and potential technical issues as well as frustrations with kids and students.

Give them Your peace that passes understanding in the midst of whatever is happening in their daily lives. Allow them to invest fully in their campers and show Jesus to those they’re interacting with.

Father, we know this is such a difficult time, and we are so grateful for these unsung heroes who are giving their time each and every day. Help them not to be discouraged and to keep pointing campers back to You.

Allow these weeks of camp to be a life-changing experience not only for kids and students but also for our camp counselors and leaders. Help them create space in their own lives to have a deep, life-changing experience with You and allow them to lead from that overflow.

In all of this, may this entire summer experience be used for Your glory.

In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ -Acts 20:35 (NIV)

Pray for Baltimore City/County Police Officers as they work to maintain peace and order where they work.

Lord, thank you for the men and women who have answered the call to civil service by policing streets, neighborhoods, communities and cities.  Today, we pray especially for those who police in Baltimore City and Baltimore County.  We pray for protection from harm and protection from illness.  Help those with whom they come into contact with, listen to and respect the authority they have been given by the State of Maryland. Thank you for their sacrifice to keep us safe and our communities in order. Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you - Hebrews 13:17 (NIV) Join others at 12 PM today to pray for our local and global community.

Pray for those who have been laid off, lost jobs, and awaiting unemployment benefits.

God, we pray for those who have lost or have been laid off from their jobs. God, we thank you for the ways that you have been a constant companion since the beginning of time. During this time when uncertainty and insecurity may try to overwhelm their thoughts and emotions, we pray that you would take captive those thoughts. Fill our brothers and sisters minds with memories of your faithfulness. Meet their needs each new day; may their debtors provide grace and friends rise up to support one another. Let humility prevail when offers of love and support are provided. Remind your people that their identity and worth is found in Christ – not by the titles we are given or the worldly esteem that the flesh so often leads desires. Lord, we lift these same petitions to you for those who are waiting to receive monetary support from the state. Remove any obstacles that may hinder the timeliness of these desperately needed benefits. Supply those waiting with patience and peace. Those who live in

Pray for educators.

Lord, thank you for the women and men that have chosen to teach as their vocation. You have gifted them with qualities of intellect, wisdom, creativity, and compassion. We ask you, Lord to guide these teachers as they discern the best ways to support their students during this new way of distance and online learning. Equip them with new ways of creativity to engage and empower both the students and their parents for successful learning. As so many are feeling overwhelmed, stressed, anxious and uncertain, we ask you to provide teachers with extra patience, peace, grace, and positivity. We also turn our attention today to the parents who have now had to become academic educators at home, in addition to juggling other important responsibilities. Lord, help them to maintain structure and a sense of peace in their homes. As both parents and students struggle to engage academically, we ask that you provide endurance and flexibility. Lord, provide for the families that do not have the proper
