Prayer List
Friends, may this prayer inspire us on the way forward:
May today there be peace within.
May you trust your highest power that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God.
Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance.
It is there for each and every one of you. Amen.*

This week we pray for:
Bill Houston, son of Linda Houston
Prayers for Bill as he undergoes testing for heart-related complications he developed after having been ill with Covid in the Spring of last year. Let us also surround Linda with our love and support.
Family members of Dorothy and Bob Iams
Happy 94th birthday for Bill Iams as well as his twin Bob (their birthday is coming up on January 24)! We continue to pray for Bill, who is in a nursing home recovering from Covid. We also pray for Dorothy's older sister Eileen who is in hospice care for Alzheimers and is healing from Covid.
Judy Seaman, friend of the Gayle and David Noble
Continued prayers for Judy who is battling a severe bacterial infection and hoping to return home from the hospital today. Prayers also for her husband Richard, in care for her.
Stan, Caryl Slater's husband
Stan has returned home. Continued prayers for full healing.
Dawn Kridel's niece Sara
Continued prayers for Sara who is struggling with an eating disorder and continues to lose weight.
Prayer of gratitude for the generosity of 13 donors, who contributed a total of $743, gift that makes possible the purchase of 4 pairs of goats through the Presbyterian Giving program.
We pray for the incoming administration, for a peaceful transition of power 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 and on the rise in many places in our state, nationally and across the world, 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!
