Special Notes:
Prayer list names are renewed every three weeks as we seek to
keep the list as current as
possible and allow space for new
requests. Our joys, concerns and deepest needs are already on
God’s heart long before we put
them to paper.
…for your Father knows what
you need before you ask him.
Matthew 6:8
