As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

- With gratitude for the peace in Washington, D.C. that allows for many of the National Guard to return home and for their service to the country.
- For God to be at work in the hearts and minds of President Biden and his Cabinet as they address the issues facing the nation.
