Prayer for Aug. 22

Every day, Living Lutheran offers a prayer for the day from the ELCA resource “Prayer ventures.” These daily 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.

You can download a pdf with the monthly “Prayer ventures” here.

Saturday, Aug. 22 We remember in prayer faith-based daycare centers and preschools in our congregations and the leaders, teachers and volunteers who care for children, support parents and nurture faith in Christ.
