Prayer and Praise
Prayer and Praise ~ Continued
Open our eyes to behold Your gracious hand in all Your works; that rejoicing in Your creation, we may learn to serve you with gladness, faithfully managing the gifts You have given us here at Grace Lutheran Church.
Our prayer and concern goes out to Robyn King. Be with her as she has had a procedure this past Friday to prepare her for dialysis. Please help LaVonne Myers as she recovers from her fall.
Thank you for your faithful servants, Pastor Curtis Atneosen who preached last week, and for Dr. Richard Erickson who is sharing your Word with us today. Give Pastor Randy and Linda travel safety as they return from Colorado.
We bring Mardelle Lida to you as she heals from the 7 stitches in her finger. Thank you that Parry Adams is out of the hospital and that he was able to visit his brother Larry this week! We continue to pray for Parry during his cancer treatments.
We pray that marriages, family, and friend relationships throughout the congregation will be strengthened as we fellowship with one another and serve together.
Thank you that Tom Olsen has finished his chemo therapy. Be with him as he faces radiation.
We pray for our college graduates. We ask for guidance and strength for Nathaniel Hendrix and Max Marcus. We ask for safety for Erika Solli as she goes to Madagascar for a mission trip. We also pray for Daniel Carter as he graduates this weekend.
We ask for strength and encouragement in times of weakness, treatment, and recovery for all those in various stages of their cancer care: Lon Davidson, Glenn Johnston, Sherri Sanderson, and Gerri Lake.
Be with Valentina as she is with her mother and family. We thank you that her mother is out of a coma. We ask for strength for her mom who is fighting cancer with her white cell count being very low.
Thank you for your servants, John Holmer, Eldon and Lois Dennis. Daily give them Your peace and strength.
Pray for the Smalley family, who has lost Monte Smalley, brother to Gary Smalley and uncle to Kim Eisinger this past week. Comfort Monte's wife, Sandy and all the other family members during this time of sadness. Be with the Wathne family, (Hosmer's, Kraakmo's, Carter's, and Lund's) in their sorrow as they have lost a brother, uncle, and cousin. Steve Wathne's memorial service was Saturday.
Over, Please
We ask for full physical recovery and strength for Martha Heiser and Allan Paulson. When our hearts are broken, and as our spirit mourns the loss of those we have lost, and nothing seems to help the sadness we feel, remind us of Your presence and that Your grace is sufficient for all of our needs.
