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

We give thanks for the baptisms of William Patrick McKey, son of William and Brooke McKey, and Tyler Claire Petty, daughter of Sean and Brooke Petty.

We give thanks for the many lay ministries at St. Luke's. This week, we give thanks for the Monday Morning Book Study. This group meets on Monday mornings at 10:00 to discuss the previously read chapter of a book chosen by the group. The group enjoys lively discussions, sharing and lots of laughs. They are currently studying the book of Acts, and just met Paul, so it’s not too late to join. Interested? Contact Ashley Danos at (225-235-1716) or ashley417@icloud.com.

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.
