Thank you Teri and Michael for running such powerful prayer ministry. God

Dear Prayer Warriors,

Crista and I would just like to thank all the mighty prayer warriors for
all the love and support we have received during thee adoption of our son.

Well we are happy to say that after 3 long years and waiting over 6 months
for his last petition to go through the system, his I 130 visa has finally
been approved and our son Benedict Alao Perna will be here early 2020,
hopefully January. Alleluia! One more prayer answered. Praise God.
with love and gratitude,
Michael & Crista Perna

PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING
O God, of Whose mercies there is no number, and of Whose goodness the treasure is infinite; we render thanks to Your most gracious majesty for the gifts You have bestowed upon us, evermore beseeching Your clemency, that as You grant the petitions of them that ask You, You will never forsake them, but will prepare for the reward to come. Through Christ our Lord.  Amen.

A Plea for Divine Help

Hear us, Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God, and graciously send Your holy angel from heaven to watch over, to cherish, to protect, to abide with, and to give courage and strength to Michael Anthony and Crista Perna and their son Benedict. 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.
