Prayer of the Week:  

Heavenly Father,

As I enter November, help me cultivate a heart of gratitude. May I see Your blessings in every moment and thank You for Your endless goodness. Open new doors of opportunity this November. Guide my steps and help me recognize and embrace the blessings You provide. Grant me strength and endurance as I move through this month. Help me to rely on Your power to face any challenges that lie ahead. Fill my heart with peace and joy. Help me to carry a calm spirit and radiate joy to those around me. Amen
