Please pray for a ceasefire in Gaza where I have dozens of family members. The IE/ So Cal is home to many Christian refugees and immigrants from Gaza and Palestine. I myself was baptized in Gaza. Please pray for God’s favor, for needs to be met, and that people would be kind and merciful in every way. Please pray for healing, restoration, and reconciliation in the midst of so much very real, painful loss and suffering that has hit so many of us, our families, and friends.
