A Call to Midday Prayer

You are invited to pause and pray with others at this time in your day.

You are encouraged to pray for the upcoming election…and for Christians at this time who work in politics, the civil service and the judiciary system

First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, requests, and thanksgivings be offered to God for all people; for kings and all others who are in authority, that we may live a quiet and peaceful life with all reverence toward God and with proper conduct. This is good and it pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to come to know the truth. For there is one God, and there is one who brings God and human beings together, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself to redeem the whole human race. That was the proof at the right time that God wants everyone to be saved.

1 Timothy 2 verses 1-6
