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, July 27: Pray for congregations and ministries serving rural and remote areas that they are assured of our support and encouragement for their pastors, leadership and members, and find effective training and resources for their contexts and challenges. Lift up recognition and appreciation for the gifts and perspectives they share with this church.
