Week Of Prayer: Day 4 (Food Services Department)

Today is day 4 of our week of prayer. 

Today we are praying for our Food Services Department.

There is something so beautiful about gathering to share a meal together. Our dining hall staff make it possible for our guest groups and program camps to run smoothly and provide an opportunity for quality discussion and wonderful memories to be made! 

Before we dive into our prayer requests here is our scripture focus for the day. 


Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
    will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.[a]
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
    my God, in whom I trust.”

Surely he will save you
    from the fowler’s snare
    and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with his feathers,
    and under his wings you will find refuge;
    his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
You will not fear the terror of night,
    nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
    nor the plague that destroys at midday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
    ten thousand at your right hand,
    but it will not come near you.
You will only observe with your eyes
    and see the punishment of the wicked.

If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
    and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm will overtake you,
    no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
    to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
    you will trample the great lion and the serpent.

14 “Because he[b] loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
    I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
    I will be with him in trouble,
    I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
    and show him my salvation.”

Psalm 91


As we pray for our Food Services department today, there are three main areas we'd like to cover. 

1. Pray for all those who spend time in the dining hall 

PRAYER REQUESTS:

  • Pray that God would bless each person who walks into our dining hall; that each guest or camper would experience the love of Jesus and come to know Him deeply. 

  • Pray that they would enjoy themselves and cherish the memories they make in the dining hall. 

  • Ask God to provide more guests for us to serve in our dining hall!

2. Pray for the staff in Food Services department.
