Every day, Living Lutheran offers a prayer for the day from the ELCA resource Prayer Ventures, which can be downloaded here. These petitions are offered as a guide for your own prayer life as together we pray for the needs of the world and give thanks for the ministries of our church.
Thursday, Feb. 23: We lift up and give thanks to God for followers of Christ who have lost their lives for their faith and have inspired the church and other believers throughout history and pray we likewise will be self-sacrificing, fearless witnesses and servants of Jesus Christ in the world.
