Pray that we would "Dare to Love" the graduates in our community.

God, we lift before you those who this spring, are reaching the culmination of a journey of educational pursuits, completing high school, college, apprenticeships or graduate programs. We know how hard they’ve worked to reach this “finish line” and, like you Father, look upon them with a godly pride of a job well done and a race well run. And like you Father, we also lament with them, as the way in which they anticipated being acknowledged and celebrating this milestone with friends, family, their educational influencers, and their fellow co-laboring classmates will fall short of their hopeful expectation. Although it may not be the same, may we not, however, let this moment go by without making an intentional effort to honor them, letting them know how much we care and how proud we are. Specifically, we pray for the “adopt a senior” initiative. May many names of graduates be offered and may each graduate be adopted by an extended community of family that "Dares to Love" them in a special way, appreciating and celebrating them, marking this moment with joy. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. -Romans 12:10 (ESV)

Pray for the Devenneys in Ivory Coast (West Africa).

Our Father, God and Comforter.  Be with us as we yearn to love and serve in Abengourou, Ivory Coast. Be with our family in Christ there, Pastor Wisdom and the clinic. Allow the clinic to continue to get the necessary medical supplies even with borders closed. Enable the body of Christ in Abengourou to provide food for their neighbors along with the bread of life that lives within them. We ask for protection and your Providence to flow through our teammates, Ian and Kristen Isely, who remain there now. Thank you for this unexpected time back in the US; allow us to find peace and direction in the immediate future as we continue to abide in your sovereignty.

Pray for those with depression and anxiety.

Merciful God, we thank you for your promises. Today, we lift up all those suffering with depression and anxiety.  This time of separation and uncertainty are all the more difficult for those who already suffer with this mental health condition and for those experiencing it for the first time now.  Loving God, we thank you that you hear us when we cry out to you and for your promise to be near to the brokenhearted and to those crushed in spirit. We ask that you would replace the darkness of depression with your light. Through your Spirit, Lord, we ask that you replace sadness and anxiety with your joy and peace. Help all those who are weary in spirit and lift them from the pit of despair.  Come quickly, Lord, to save those who are crushed in spirit and experiencing anxiety. We thank you, that you call all of us who are burdened and weary to come to you, and for your promise of rest for our souls. We call upon you now and cling to your promises. Bring healing, in Jesus’ nam...
