This week, you are invited to pray for the Synod presidential election, especially for the electors, who are preparing for the second round of voting.

In place of a collect, consider praying and meditating on the following verses:

The Lord is the strength of his people;
he is the saving refuge of his anointed.
Oh, save your people and bless your heritage!
Be their shepherd and carry them forever. (Psalm 28:8–9)

In place of a collect, consider praying and meditating on the following verses:

Walk about Zion, go around her,
number her towers,

that this is God,
our God forever and ever.
He will guide us forever. (Psalm 48:12–14)
