Open unto me, light for my darkness

Open unto me, courage for my fear

Open unto me, hope for my despair

Open unto me, peace for my turmoil

Open unto me, joy for my sorrow

Open unto me, strength for my weakness

Open unto me, wisdom for my confusion

Open unto me, forgiveness for my sins

Open unto me, tenderness for my toughness

Open unto me, love for my hates

Open unto me, your self for myself Lord,

Lord, open unto me!

We pray for

  • God’s love and peace around those overwhelmed with loss, with continuing warfare in Ukraine, and violence in Palestine/Israel and other regions;
  • God’s guidance in negotiations for peace, improved relations across the aisle in government buildings and across the globe with international tensions;
  • God's healing and transforming power to touch all those who are grappling with illness, with difficult situations;
  • God's love and hope to infuse all hearts in our community and across the world.

Prayer Request and Privacy Laws

Please note, that because of government privacy laws, hospitals and care centers no longer are allowed to notify churches that a person has been admitted (even if the person lists their home church at admission). The only way that the church staff will know if someone is hospitalized is if a family member or friend lets us know. We'd rather get 20 calls about the same person than none! Thanks for your help in making Westminster a caring community. Contact the Westminster Office by phone 330-263-2398 or email to notify the church if you or someone you know is hospitalized or otherwise in need of our prayers!
