Prayer Request from Ariel Van Der Bogart

This is from our choir member Ariel, and we are so sorry to have to send out this very sad news. We pray for healing, comfort and strength for her friend's family. May God be with them all, and we pray for the repose of the soul of their father. Thank you so much and God bless you and your loved ones, Teri & Michael (see below)

Hi Michael,    I was given some awful news today. My family friend's father committed suicide   last night and my friend's mother only has 2 weeks to live- cancer came back and   spread to her spinal fluid. I was hoping our prayer warriors could pray for the   both of them and their families through this terrible and difficult time. I know   our prayer warriors are strong and devotional to each prayer that goes out, and   I am so thankful to be a part of this awesome ministry.    Thank you for listening Michael.     Love,  Ariel Van Der Bogart   

    
In Loving Memory
    Almighty God, through the death of Your Son on the cross, You have overcome  death for us. Through his burial and resurrection from the dead You have made  the grave a holy place and restored us to eternal life. We pray for those who  died believing in Jesus and are buried with him in the hope of rising again.  God of the living and the dead, may those who faithfully believed in You on  earth praise You forever in the joy of heaven. We ask this through Christ our  Lord. Amen.
      
PRAYER FOR MIRACLES & HEALING
    
Heavenly Father, I trust in Your great love for me and all Your people.  I ask You to unleash a wave of miracles and healing throughout Your church  through the prayers of Your people. Touch the sick and the suffering, and  restore them to wholeness and well­-being. Lord Jesus, I ask for the grace to  pray with expectant faith for my brothers and sisters who are hurting and in  need of Your healing touch. Holy Spirit, open my eyes to see the kingdom of God  all around me. Help me to recognize Your presence and Your work in the people I  meet, and to be responsive to people I encounter that are in need of  prayer.  In the Name of Jesus Christ our  Lord, Amen.
