Prayer Requests - St. Luke's Episcopal Church Baton Rouge

We give thanks for the many lay ministries at St. Luke's. This week, we give thanks for the members of the Flower Guild. This group takes altar flowers from the previous Sunday to parishioners in the hospital, in long-term care, or home bound. Volunteers are needed once every 4 or 5 weeks to visit for a bit. To volunteer or if you have questions, please contact Loree Field at 225-229-2972.

‍We lift up the men and women of the National Guard and all who serve in the United States military. Bless them with courage, protect them from harm, grant them wisdom in every duty, and surround their families with peace and strength.

‍Dear Father, Send down your blessings on law enforcement officers, firemen, and first responders. Grant them courage, wisdom, strength, and compassion in all their work. When the alarm sounds, let them faithfully serve you in their neighborhood. Amen.

Almighty God, whose beloved Son Jesus Christ, went about doing good, and healing all manner of illness and disease: continue, we beseech you, his gracious work. Grant to physicians, nurses and all health care professionals wisdom and skill, sympathy and patience; keep them safe and preserve them from all contagion. Cheer, heal and sanctify the sick, and send down your blessing on all who care for them healer, Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
