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, Oct. 27: We pray for first responders – firefighters, paramedics, police and others – who respond to emergencies in spite of the personal risks. We pray for their physical, spiritual and emotional well-being and that they receive the care, comfort and affirmation they need.
