Can you guys please pray for Paradise California and the surrounding areas? The whole thing is terrifying, at least 40 dead, and many missing. The smoke here where I live is already incredibly thick, and I can't imagine the grief and loss these people are facing.

Of course!

Sure!

It's honestly one of the most frightening things I can think about - to imagine a town, population 26,000 completely and utterly destroyed by fire..

That's more than Pompeii had back when the volcano erupted (15,000) - it's just a miracle that so many more people did get out alive than Pompeii, but still extremely devastating.

Yeah! That sounds awfully scary! And I'll be praying for you GJFH!

My goodness, I will certainly be praying!!!!!

Definitely!

Praying for all your family GJFH

If everyone could pray for my left elbow it'd be greatly appreciated. When I broke it a few years back I was on a Medicaid waiting list forever. However, due to my promotion last year I lost my medical card and never got to have my PT. In part due to the cold, this elbow has really been acting up. It hinders my ability to even hold up a light globe overhead. Any and all prayers would be greatly appreciated.

A couple of weeks ago there was an act of religious vandalism on my college campus. A lot of the community is righteously angry and hurt by this incident. Please pray for healing and for religious freedom around the world.

Hey if y'all could pray for Oklahoma that'd be great. We've had some killer weather this past week with tornados (something like 63 warnings just last weekend) but the main problem right now is the flooding. I'm personally not affected but I know lots of people who are. One of the ladies from my church is stranded at her daughter's house There are hundreds of pictures like this all over my town and surrounding towns. The governor has placed all 77 counties under a state of emergency. We've had issues with runaway barges hitting dams (that didn't break, thank God), tons and tons of roads being closed (major highways), we've been told our water was going to get cut off. Prayer would be appreciated!

praying for you guys, Connie!!

Thanks! They think it's crested by now (gotten as bad as it's gonna get, now it's gonna go down), but we're also expecting MORE rain which could throw that off.

i didn't know about this until recently, but Kathy Buchanan's husband was just tragically killed and her entire family could use prayer.

It happened so near to where I live and work and had me so shook. It's so terrible.
