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.
Tuesday, Oct. 1 International Day of Older Persons We remember in prayer older adults, who bring vitality and diverse gifts to communities and congregations; we give thanks for their faith, wisdom, generosity and life experiences. We pray for those who live in nursing homes, facilities for memory care and assisted living, and continuing care retirement communities, that they will be valued and respected and will receive skilled care.
