Every day, Living Lutheran offers a prayer from the ELCA resource Prayer ventures, which can be downloaded here. 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.
Monday, Aug. 7 We pray for teachers, school staff and administrators in public and faith-based schools as they prepare for a new academic year. Give thanks that they have chosen a vocation of service, education and care for children and youth of all backgrounds and abilities.
