As one of our synod's compassion ministries, WELS Christian Aid and Relief helps those who are hurting by providing disaster relief, humanitarian aid through WELS Home and World Missions, and personal relief grants for WELS members going through a crisis.
We join them in prayer as hurricane season starts.🙏
Dear friends in Christ,
Today marks the beginning of another Atlantic Hurricane Season (June 1-November 30). Please join us to pray:
Lord God, heavenly Father, you rule over all creation and command the winds and the waves. As we enter another hurricane season, we ask for your mercy and protection for all who may be affected by storms. Preserve lives, homes, and communities according to your gracious will, and give peace and confidence to those who face uncertainty and fear.
Bless and protect first responders, utility workers, medical personnel, relief agencies, and volunteers who serve others during and after disasters. Give them strength for their work and keep them safe from harm.
Open our eyes to opportunities to show Christ’s love to those who are hurting. Move us to acts of compassion and generosity and give us courage to share the good news of Jesus, who is our refuge and hope in every trouble.
Into your hands we commend ourselves and all people, trusting in your wisdom, mercy, and unfailing care; through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
As always, we thank you for your prayers, volunteer service, and generous support of our ministry of mercy. God bless you!
In Christ, our compassionate Savior,
Pastor Dan Sims
Director, WELS Christian Aid and Relief
