You are invited to offer your prayers to God. For what are you thankful this morning? What would you ask of God for yourself? Who do you know who needs God’s loving presence right now? What are your prayers for our community, our country, and our world?
We offer prayers this morning for the family and friends of the victims in the recent Atlanta shootings: Soon Chung Park; Hyun Jung Grant; Suncha Kim; Yong Ae Yue; Paul Andre Michels; Delaina Ashley Yaun; Xiaojie Tan; and Daoyou Feng.
And we pray for Asian Americans who are facing increased prejudice and hate crimes in these days.
Feel free to share your prayers with people around you, in the comments below, or on our Zoom call at 11 Sunday morning.
