Joys and Concerns — 2/17/19

These are prayers lifted today during worship:

• Sandy asks prayers of healing for her niece Amber. Amber has had several surgeries over the past couple of weeks, and her mom and dad have stayed by her side. Prayers are needed for them as well. With enough prayers surrounding her and encouraging her doctors, maybe she will get to come home this week. For continued healing for Amber, we prayer.

• At the passing of Martha, several in the church family have asked for prayers of comfort and peace for Merv, his family, and their many friends.

• Linda C. asks prayers for all who lost jobs at the Kroger Bakery shutdown. Grant them patience in finding a new job.

• Paul reminds to continually lift prayers for Dingus family as they deal with the loss of house and pets. We list prayers of gratitude that no one was injured.

Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer.

• Claudia lifts prayers of thanks that Randy and his partner Scott arrived safe and sound from their cruise.

Lord, in thanksgiving, hear our praise.
