Dear God,

Thank You for the pastors and spiritual leaders You have placed in my life. I am grateful for the guidance, wisdom, and love they have shown me as they lead our congregation. Thank You for using them to encourage and inspire me to grow in my faith and relationship with You.

I pray that You continue to bless and strengthen them as they faithfully shepherd Your people. Grant them the vision and courage to lead with integrity and humility. May they continue to be filled with Your Spirit and be a source of encouragement and support to everyone in our community.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
