week of 10/25


God of love, our world is spinning and we are losing strength to hold on. Relationships are falling apart, pain is all too real, and your presence can be hard to feel. Help us to remember that your love never lets us go, even in the midst of our troubles. We humbly offer these prayers from the community at Broad Street Ministry:

Pray for my soul and for everybody else help me to prey for staying on the right track and getting a room so I can live in it and support myself thank you God bless all

to lift up each of my students & their individual afflictions, what ever they may be. Lord help me to be a part of their story--to spread seeds, to water, to nurture, to prune, or to harvest. help me to help them to be good soil.

A life unexamined is not worth living (plato)
I pray for courage
