Prayers for the Doe family

Let me call a brief intermission from the mad, mad world of the Looking Closer Journal to ask you to join me and my wife Anne in prayer.

Anne’s family is a large one: she has seven siblings, all of whom are married. Anne and I have twenty nephews and neices running around.

In the last month, we’ve lost a newborn neice, a four-month-old girl named Corrie, and we’ve lost Anne’s grandmother. Both were, of course, dearly loved. The family is weary with grief; the losses have taken a heavy toll. Please pray for the restoration of their spirits, for physical health and strength, and for comfort. Especially pray for Anne’s other grandmother, who is also very ill.

Thank you for your consideration during this time.
