August is the month of fires and floods./ We pray for those who have suffered losses recently,/ and for those who generously and bravely,/ rescue and help./ We pray to the Lord.
Direct us/ that our political positions and opinions would reflect the teaching of Jesus:/ Love your neighbor./ We pray to the Lord.
In these summer days/ free us from cynicism and despair./ Give us grateful,/ happy hearts/ for the generous love you show./ We pray to the Lord.
Bless religious leaders everywhere./ Give peace and security to Christians who are in trouble for the name of Jesus./ We pray to the Lord.
School will begin soon,/ and so we pray for children and young people:/ for their safety,/ and growth in learning and goodness./ And for the ones who have no school to go to./ We pray to the Lord.
For those who have no joy in life/ who know only trouble and pain./ Give us hearts that are eager to share./ We pray to the Lord.
For any who struggle with sickness,/ injury,/ emotional problems and addictions./ Bless the people who help others to get well./ And we pray for those who have died and for their salvation./ We pray to the Lord.
