Among our joys:
We give thanks for these sunny days and for the glimpse of the Summer season that is soon to come. We pray for those struggling in the heat and we lift our partner organizations locally who are involved in providing shelter to our community members who are most vulnerable to the heat.
And on this Mother's Day, we lift a word of gratitude for all the mothers of our lives, and for all those who have been like a mother to us. We also remember in our prayers those for whom this day bring grief and/or complicated emotions.kMay God be present with each of us as we seek to live into our call to be like our God, whose mothering ways tend to the best of all of creation, cultivating peace and nurturing those in our care.
Concerns
We continue praying for:
Jeanette Sanchez-Izenman
Mel Peabody's partner, Bear
Rachel Morford
And for our homebound friends, Helen Bosley, Harry and Margaret Lobberegt, Jane Nelson, Marylu and Joseph Mills and Jim and Kay Thompson and Lenora Cook.
