Bishop Lawrence and his family are requesting prayer for the Bishop’s mother, Bertha Ann Lawrence, who is gravely ill. We are also asking for traveling mercies for the Lawrences as they travel to be with her.
Almighty God, look on this your servant, Bertha,
lying in great weakness and comfort her with the promise of life everlasting,
given in the resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Our prayers are with you.
And I’m sure I can speak for those of us who know Bishop Lawrence in the Diocese of San Joaquin from whence he came when I say our prayers are with the Lawrence family.
Please forgive my ignorance. What in the world are “traveling mercies?”
#3, God watching over and protecting him as he goes by air, vehicle or step.
#4, Thank you.
