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, April 17: Mary Magdalene, though caught in a swirl of emotions and questions, told others of what she saw and heard at Jesus’ empty tomb. Pray the Spirit will move us beyond our doubts, embarrassments and reluctance and fill us with a desire and boldness to share our faith with friends and strangers alike.
