November 2006 Prayer List
Month - November 2006: Please pray for the following needs of St. Matthew Church.
November’s scripture verse:
I have set the Lord always before me because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. Psalm 16:8
November’s New Requests:
• For the St. Matthew’s committees and outreach ministries specifically:
o The Ministry to the Sick and Homebound. May the Holy Spirit bless those who receive the support, and the ones who provide it.
• Thank you for a successful Fall Festival.
• Bring workers to the Fall Work Day. Keep everyone safe
• Strengthen and provide for families who are separated by divorce or death.
• As the holidays approach, keep our hearts focused on the gift of giving and the blessings already received.
Existing Requests:
• Armed Forces – may God’s protection surround our troops, especially the men and women serving from St. Matthew. May God strengthen their families.
• St. Matthew’s two, five and 10 year planning. May the Holy Spirit direct our future.
• For an increase in stewardship in our parish, that more people will give of their time, treasure and talents for the good of our community.
• We thank God for providing money for debt reduction. We ask that He grant us continued favor for the remaining amount.
• We lift us the priests of the Archdiocese and the Topeka region as they bless us through their faithful service.
• Strengthen and guide Father Jerry during his sabbatical.
Sabbatical Prayer (This will be the Prayer Committee’s prayer for three months.)
Father of Light and source of all goodness, we your people of faith at St. Matthew's ask that your grace and blessing be upon us and upon our parish during this time of repentance, rest and renewal. Help us to be truly sorry for the times we have hurt one another, and to seek your gift of forgiveness. May we find rest in your love and be ever mindful of your holy presence I n our own lives and in the life of our parish. Renew within us the gift of your Spirit, who dwells in our hearts and leads us closer to you. This we ask in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
