Weekly prayers for the people, the community, the country, and for peace

by | Jun 1, 2023 | Weekly Prayers

Dearest Wintergarden Faith Community, 

The prayers for today are from the past two weeks in worship.

As we continue to pray for one another, our community, our country, and our world, let us do so with love and hope. Our weekly email of prayers is a way for us to share the prayers shared in worship, through the food pantry, and our various other ministries with a larger group. Due to privacy needs we will only include the first names of people and not last names. We also know this list will not be perfect and in need of constant updating. We will review this every week and be mindful of how we are being asked to pray for one another, our community, our country, and our world. 

Blessings,
Pastor Devon
