Prayer Requests

We encourage you to submit your prayer requests here (celebrations are very welcome, too!), by commenting on this post or by emailing me at ldmay7 @ gmail.com [remove the spaces around the @ sign]. We will include them in our prayers during Sunday worship.

Are you hurting? Pray. Do you feel great? Sing. Are you sick? Call the church leaders together to pray and anoint you with oil in the name of the Master. Believing-prayer will heal you, and Jesus will put you on your feet. And if you’ve sinned, you’ll be forgiven—healed inside and out.

Make this your common practice: Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you can live together whole and healed. The prayer of a person living right with God is something powerful to be reckoned with. Elijah, for instance, human just like us, prayed hard that it wouldn’t rain, and it didn’t—not a drop for three and a half years. Then he prayed that it would rain, and it did. The showers came and everything started growing again.

(James 4:13-18 The Message)

    Please pray that Logan opens his heart to God Nd he trusts in God. Please pray that Logan accepts his homosexuality and that Jesus loves him for being who he is. Please pray that Logan trusts that he is loved and it is okay to be gay. Lastly pray that he allows and accepts the love from his friends and family and have him accept his cosmic reward in this lifetime.

    Thank you

    Please help me to pray for the one I love who seems to stop loving and understanding me already. Help me to pray to accept if not meant to be, otherwise help me to pray that we reconcile and build a very promising and God-fearing relationship for the rest of our lives. Help me to pray to God the Father in the name of Jesus Christ to guide him and protect him and provide him all he needs.
    Thank you very much and God bless.

    Please pray for Gavin Scott Hart and I to be really happy and in love together and get married someday. Please pray the serenity prayer for both of us as well. I really love him and don’t want to loose him. I’m tired of being broke up and I just want a man to settle down with and grow old together with. Gavin is perfect for me and he already broke up with me yesterday, but he wants to get together again but doesn’t want to call it getting back together just yet. I was thinking earlier today that that serenity prayer if it worked on me, would keep Gavin and I together. I noticed that everyone I’ve dated except for one guy loved me and still loves me today, and they all had the dame complaints about me and if God grants me the serenity to change then I know I will be happily married someday, and I don’t want Gavin slip away just like all the other boys did. Thank you Rev. Jane *HUGS*

  22. Walter L Says:

    I am sad because I can’t seem to find a lover. I want someone to hold and hug, to hold near to my face, and rest my head on his chest, to kiss a thousand times on his cheek. I thought a guy I met on the weekend would be interested in me but I don’t think he is. I am really doing well with my depression – this is the happiest I’ve ever felt for ages and years – but when I try to get guys I feel down when they are not interested in me – so I think to myself that in order to keep my spirits up I should stop trying to pick up guys – it is not the sex I am mainly interested in, although I am interested in the sexual part of it – it is more the touch and the closeness – the smell and hearing his heartbeat against my ear as his chest heaves up and down with his breath.

    I am already 37 and have never had a relationship, partly because I’m gay and I hid it or resisted it, and partly because I am too careful and picky or scared or fearful or afraid or send mixed messages or am too afraid to act on messages I do pick up, or because I am unsure and afraid, or lost sometimes. I was sad before, but now I am happier – I just want someone to touch – there are so many greater problems in the world than me, and I feel so lucky that now in recent weeks and months I have felt so much more happier – which seems like a miracle as i have been depressed for years and I never thought the sadness would truly disappear to this extent – I feel sad because as I get older and less physically attractive I fear I won’t be able to attract the people that are attractive to me – and I fear I may slowly sink back into depression and give up trying

    • therevjane Says:

      Walter, I am sorry for your sadness and loneliness. Sometimes we do not attract other people when there is a hole in our hearts. I would encourage you to look at making yourself whole – that does not depend on another person. As you heal, others will be more drawn to you.
      In MCc, we have a part of our statement of faith that address your very need. It reads:
      We are saved from loneliness, despair and degradation through God’s gift of grace, as was declared by our Savior. Such grace is not earned, but is a pure gift from a God of pure love. ”
      Seek out a community that can hold you in prayer and love as you fill your emptiness.

  28. Penny Jorgensen Says:

    Dear friends,

    May I please ask for your prayers? I am in a world of hurt right now and don’t remember ever being so low. In December, I went for a procedure to help a pinched nerve in my back and suffered a stroke when something went very wrong. My whole life feels like it has fallen apart since. I lost my home in the Pacific NW and had to move to WI and haven’t been able to work. Would you please pray for my healing (heart, mind and body) and that I’ll come through this even stronger and help others because of this? Thank you and bless you. Penny

  29. therevjane Says:

    Thank you Penny for sharing your prayer concerns with us.
    I would encourage you to read some of he psalms as many of them relate to being in dark places of life and being able to pull through them. I pray that God will work though those around you,
