• We lift up our homebound friends and those for whom making it to Church is increasingly a difficult thing to do to a variety of challenges. Let us remember all those who feel isolated, and in our prayers, do what we can to remind them that we love them and miss them. Among them, we pray for Anita Thompson, Dorothy Beeles, Norma Carolyn, Phyllis Jacobsen, Harry Lobberegt, Pat Lien, Charlene Housman, Lela Cox, Marc Master, and Irene McBride.

Among our local and global community:

• We pray for those in the U.S. detention facilities, especially the children and the sick.  For justice for them.

• We lift to God the village on 6th and Orchard, for those seeking shelter and community of many kinds, and for God's spirit to nudge us to the people and places where we might best use our resources to do ministry like Jesus would do - without prejudice, without hatred, with hope and joy and confident inclusion

• We pray for all involved in the war in Iran, for the just treatment of all of God’s children, and for a de-escalation of all violence spoken and acted upon in the name of our Creator.

• Last but not least, please join me in lifting our Global Ministries partners this week in Colombia
