If you or someone you know is in need of food assistance during these summer months, there are multiple food distribution events every day throughout the region.

Heavenly Father, Prince of Peace:

With gratitude, we pray for those who were called to defend us. Watch over those who serve with courage and sacrifice, whether at home or far from their families. Grant them strength in difficult moments and peace in times of uncertainty.

Protect them from harm and surround them with Your presence wherever they go. Bless the families who support them with patience, hope, and comfort during times of separation.

Guide leaders with integrity and compassion. Move their minds from war to peace, and bring healing to those carrying emotional wounds. May Your peace prevail over conflict, and may all who serve return safely home.

We give thanks for their dedication, sacrifice, and commitment to protecting others. May they always find courage, purpose, and hope in Your abiding love.

Amen.
