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.

Wednesday, Oct. 9 We pray for national leaders, diplomats, mediators and organizations working to achieve cease-fires, peace and recovery in Ukraine, Russia, Israel, the Palestinian territories, Sudan and other regions. We ask God to make us diligent bearers of hope, peace and justice in the world.
