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.
Monday, Aug. 15: Mary, Mother of Our Lord We are all bearers of good news – the gospel – no matter our social standing, abilities, education, age or position. We ask the Spirit to permeate everything we say and do with expressions of joy and hope.
