Two of my home-girls on my sidebar and with whom I hang out on the Forever-Inspired Boards are really standing in the need of prayer.

Andrea’s grandparents were in a car accident a week ago and are still really badly off health-wise. Her grandmother is not breathing on her own and her grandfather is back in the hospital with heart problems and a broken neck. Prayers for her grandparents and the family are asked for.

Almighty God, source of human knowledge and skill: Guide physicians and nurses and all those you have called to practice the arts of healing. Strengthen them by your life-giving Spirit, that, by their ministries, the health of all people may be promoted and your creation may be glorified; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Julia’s father passed away after a long fight with cancer. Please pray for her family right now.

Almighty God, source of all mercy and giver of comfort: Deal graciously, we pray, with those who mourn, that, casting all their sorrow on you, they may know the consolation of your love; through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
