Praying for America


Today, our class is continuing to pray for the nations, but our focus is away from Africa at the moment and on America. The Heiskell School is a very patriotic school and we celebrate our great nation many times throughout the year. We are proud to live in a nation where we can freely worship God. We are proud to belong to a school where we can freely proclaim His name. Check out the prayers on behalf of our great nation from the hearts of third graders:
  • I want to pray for people who are without jobs.
  • I want to pray for people to stop smoking.
  • I pray President Obama will have God around him.
  • I pray for those who deal with hurricanes and other natural disasters.
  • I pray for the soldiers who are coming home.
  • I pray for a better economy.
  • I pray for Americans to learn to know God.
  • I pray for the wounded soldiers.
  • I pray there will not be any more gangsters or criminals.
  • I pray for salvation of our government leaders.
  • I pray President Obama will make the right decisions.
  • I pray we will use our money wisely.
  • I pray for wounded soldiers.
  • I pray for sick people.
  • I pray for our media.
  • I pray for the soldiers currently in Iraq.
  • I pray for the homeless and orphans that they will be safe.
  • I pray for safety for policemen and firemen.
  • I pray for safety when driving on the roads, especially in the rain.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
