Your pain will turn into joy. John 16:20
Dear heavenly Father, we are faithful, but in times of great need, we turn to you for your peace. We ask that you remove what troubles us and teach us to fear not. You have the ability to turn pain into joy, and we ask that you do that now. Lord, remove the suffering we are experiencing and remind us of all you have done and will continue to do for us, for you are a loving and caring God. We pray all this in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Belief of the Church
With the whole of Christendom, we share faith in God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We believe and confess that God has revealed Himself once and for all in His Son Jesus Christ; that our Lord has redeemed us with whole of mankind by His death and His resurrection; and that there is no salvation apart from Him. We believe that He is present with us in the Word and the Sacrament; that He directs and unites us through His Spirit and thus forms us into a Church. We hear Him summoning us to follow Him, and pray Him to use us in His Service. He joins us together mutually so that knowing ourselves to be members of His Body we become willing to serve each other.
