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.
Friday, Sept. 22: Pray for God to help cultivate in us mutual understanding, patience, forgiveness, a sense of community and an appreciation for diversity in the church and the world and that we experience the rich blessings of our unity in Jesus Christ.
