Everyday, 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.
Friday, July 29: As congregations, pastors, leaders and delegates prepare for our Churchwide Assembly, we pray God’s Spirit will ready their hearts and minds for fruitful discussions and work to advance the ELCA’s mission of sharing the gospel, serving our neighbor and doing God’s work in the world.
