Prayers Of and For The People of St Nicholas

Prayers for the repose of the soul of Anna H. Perpetual light shine upon you Anna and blessed, eternal life be granted unto you. Amen.

Prayers for Tony B. May your vision be crystal clear and you heal quickly.

For all the creatures of this world: that we care for their safety and survival.

Thanksgiving for answered prayers for Penny and Hank’s son Jason.

For all St Nicholas community members in need of healing, and anyone else in need of our continued prayers and well wishes.

For members of the support groups at St. Nicholas who endure, “one day at at time,” in their daily battles against addiction.

Also for “the members of the Support Groups who have lost so many of their members…peace and comfort be granted unto them.”

And last, for those whose struggles with their addictions are ongoing, that they may see that the help they need is so close at hand. Lord, that they may take heart of grace, and find the courage to walk through the door, we ask in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Are you ready for some… Bible Study?!!

Lectionary

The Fun Starts Up Again October 5
Bible Study continues after the 10AM service. Please consider joining in the scriptural and spiritual conversation. Last season’s Islam and Christianity study was fascinating and certainly inspired lively conversation. We began our program on Sunday, October 5th after the 10am Liturgy. Join us as we delve into Sacred Scripture, engage in our relationship with Jesus and study how we understand and interpret the Bible. All are welcome.
