Lord, we thank you for the presence of Christine in our lives and we lift her up with these intentions to you. May you fill her with an abundance of your grace as she does her best to raise her children in a loving household. We thank you for our own mothers that you have given us, whose love is so precious that it can never be measured, whose patience seems to have no end. May we see your loving hand behind them and guiding them. We pray for those mothers who fear they will run out of love or time, or patience. We ask you to bless them with your own special love. We ask this in Christ's name.
Amen.

Pam
Lord, we offer to you our prayers for Pam. We thank you for the gift of her presence in our lives. As a mother, please give her the grace to care for those you've sent into her life, to help them develop the special gifts you've given them. To model for them how to follow their own paths that you've called them to and to bring their loving wisdom to the world. Please bless her life in these next few years in Denver and draw her and her family to Your loving table. Amen.

Chrissy and Barry Patterson Family
Lord, this week we lift up to you the Patterson family. Give them, O Lord, a steadfast heart, which no unworthy affection may drag downwards; give them an unconquered heart, which no tribulation can wear out; give them an upright heart, which no unworthy purpose may tempt aside. Bestow upon them also, O Lord our God, understanding to know you, diligence to seek you, wisdom to find you, and a faithfulness that may finally embrace you; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
