Prayers for the Week of June 23
This week in worship, we honored the tension between what we’ve inherited and what’s still unfolding. We named the courage it takes to look again—to revisit what’s familiar with open eyes and a ready heart.
That same courage shows up in our prayers. In the questions we carry. In the hope we hold for one another.
Here’s what our community is lifting up this week:
-
Rev. Elizabeth gives thanks for her wife’s final Sunday at her current church and asks for prayers as they prepare for the move and new beginnings.
-
Teri remembers her parents', the Coopers, on their anniversary this Wednesday and shares gratitude that Joan has officially moved into Balfour. Please keep Joan in prayer as she adjusts to this new chapter.
-
Louise asks for continued healing for her son’s father-in-law and clarity around his medical needs.
-
Katherine invites us to hold all military service members and their families in prayer, especially those heading into active deployment zones.
We give thanks for the love that holds steady when things are changing.
We offer these prayers in the spirit of reframing—open, honest, and hopeful.
