protect us on an ongoing never ending exhausting schedule.
Please pray for our nation's truck drivers who haul our consumer
goods all over the country everyday, 24 by 7, who deserve our
graditude and thanks. One such truck driver saved my life, by

alone on a trip to Columbus, Ohio. "Thank you, Mr. Trucker!"

vegatables and other food crops who work in the hot sun for

strong in these last and evil days.
Please pray for women around the world who are dealing with
domestic violence, and that they will call on God, our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ to help them to walk away and be free to laugh again.
I am a survivor of domestic violence and a success story.
Please pray for women around the world that have breast cancer.
I am a survivor of breast cancer and God is my Healer.
Please pray for those that have lost their jobs, homes, cars, savings,
retirement pensions, and businesses; due to foreclosures, fires,
bankruptcy, and the increase in oil and gasoline prices.
Pray for the many things that are happening in our country right now, the financial crisis, lost jobs, foreclosure on thousands of homes across our country, people that are not able to handle the stress in their lives, broken homes, missing women and children.
We need to pray for a revival in our country for people to stand up for what our country, the United States of America was founded on Christian principals.
