Prayer List & Request
Names may only be added to the Prayer List with the explicit consent of the recipient. All names in italics were added to the prayer list this past week. In order to keep the Prayer List current and to facilitate the intentionality and mindfulness with which we pray, we print names on the Prayer List for three months or less. If you would like for someone to remain on the list for more (or less) time, please call the office at (804) 359-5628 or visit ghtc.org/contact and select Lauren Frazier from the drop down menu.

O God, you have taught us through your blessed Son that whoever receives a little child in the name of Christ receives Christ himself: We give you thanks for all the mothers in our lives. We also acknowledge that this day is heartbreaking for those who have suffered a loss, whether not being able to have a child, losing a child or parent either by death or estrangement. Hold up the joyful and broken hearts on this Mother’s Day. Watch over those who raise, teach, and bear children in your world. We are grateful for their calm strength and patient wisdom as they seek to bring your children to love all that is true and noble, just and pure, lovable and gracious, following the example of our Lord and Savior.
