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.
Tuesday, July 4: Give thanks to God for our national and state parks, wilderness areas, wildlife reserves and urban parks and green spaces, places of renewal and beauty that reflect the wonders and creative powers of our Creator.
