Sunday 4 February – Thank God for our Altar Guild which attends weekly to the care of our altar – the placement of flowers, the care of the candles and the changing of paraments. Thank God for their silent and often unappreciated ministry which adds much to weekly worship.
Monday 5 February – Celebrate the birthdays of friends by praying for them today: Lynne Carter (4); Kathryn Novak (4); Virginia Martens (6); Lois Humbert (8); Chris Baker (9).
Tuesday 6 February – Like Peter and the other disciples needed to be directed to the great catch of fish, pray also that we would follow the Lord’s direction to the great catch of humans who need to be “caught” by the Lord.
Wednesday 7 February – Pray by name for family and friends who need special care from the Lord.
Thursday 8 February – Thank God for the remarkable recovery God has granted to Steve Klafehn, who fell from the Lutheran Hour float six weeks ago today. Pray for progress in his continuing therapy and rehabilitation as he and his parents have returned home to New York.
Friday 9 February – In partnership with Lutheran Hour Ministries, the Lutheran Church in Panama is focusing on radio and television ministry over six stations, receiving as many as 5,000 listener responses annually. Ask God to continue to use this media ministry to reach Panamanians with the Good News about Jesus Christ.
