Prayer for all fathers


Heavenly Father, we give you thanks for all fathers, who reflect your love and care in their own lives and families.


As they provide for their children, guide them with wisdom, and encourage them with their love, we ask you to strengthen their faith and patience.



May they find joy in their work and in their families, and may their faith be a beacon of hope and love.


We also remember those fathers who have passed away, and we pray for their peace and eternal rest.


May we honor their memory and continue to follow their examples.


Bless all fathers today, and always. Amen.

Bishop Amy was born and raised all over the south, namely the Carolinas and Louisiana. After graduating from Louisiana Scholars’ College, she returned to her home church in Covington, Louisiana to pursue ordination to the priesthood. During this time, she met her husband, Jared. Together, they traveled to Austin where Bishop Amy attended seminary. Twenty-six years later, they have three children and have lived in Dallas, Eastern Kentucky, Little Rock, and now Kansas City. They also have two dogs, Luca and Bethany, and one grand-puppy, Charlotte.
