PRAYERS FOR GUAM

Champi is forecasted to strengthen into a powerful typhoon!

Eyes are on Tropcial Storm Champi that is heading towards Guam and is expected to turn into a powerful typhoon in a few hours. At present, the track is taking it right near or over Guam by Sunday. Please keep them and all its path, in your prayers.


On the Sea of Galilee, even when the disciples began to fear, Jesus showed that he was Lord over the waters by rebuking the storms, so that all would know that even the wind and the waves obey him.


Creator God, we ask you to calm the wind and the waves of Typhoon Champi as it approaches Guam, and spare those in its path from harm. Help those who are in its way to reach safety. Open our hearts in generosity to all who need help in the coming days.


In all things and in all times, help us to remember that even when life seems dark and stormy, you are in the boat with us, guiding us to safety.
