December 23

Pray for all of the young men and women who are away from home, family and friends, for our brothers and sisters who are serving in the military in distant lands, for college and seminary students not able to be home, and for missionaries overseas, that during this season filled with hope, anticipation, and joy they may hear and feel God's loving embrace. Pray also for forgotten brothers and sisters -- the homeless and hungry and those in prisons -- that they be filled with the hope that God offers to all and that their lives be transformed by the loving Christ.
