Prayer List
Friends,
As we approach Valentine's Day,
may we remember that we are called to love each other with love that is more than warm, romantic feelings. It is an intentional, committed love that leads to upbuilding one another; a love that seeks justice for all our neighbors.
"Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love. God’s love was revealed among us in this way: God sent God's only Son into the world so that we might live through him... Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another... if we love one another, God lives in us, and God's love is perfected in us."
1 John 4:7-9, 11-12
This week we pray for:
Ferenc (Francis), Pastor Enikő's father
Prayers for my dad Ferenc. He was hospitalized this morning (in Romania) to receive further treatment for pneumonia (not Covid related).
Judy Seaman, friend of the Gayle and David Noble
Continued prayers for Judy who was readmitted to the Cleveland Clinic today. She has been suffering from a severe bacterial infection in her spine.
Prayers for teachers, staff and students in Wooster and across Wayne county as they return to in-person learning. Prayers for smooth transitions, for strength and wisdom for all involved.
We pray for the new administration and for healing along our many societal chasms. May we all seek ways to work for the common good!
As Covid infection rates remain high, we pray for healthcare workers who are stretched beyond capacity. Let us do our part in keeping everybody safe by wearing masks and staying at home.
We also pray for all of us as we grapple with the weight of all the uncertainty and loss. May we be mindful especially of those who have lost loved ones, who are alone, without support and care during these days. Let us sow seeds of hope and joy through small acts of kindness and love!
