Prayer Points Pray for our brothers and sisters whose lives have been devastated by Hurricane Matthew. Remember especially the people of Haiti, who were still recovering from the destruction of the 2010 earthquake. Pray for those who have lost loved ones, and whose homes and businesses have been destroyed. Pray that God’s love will comfort and heal. Ask God to provide peace in the hearts of those who are hurting and assurance that people around the world will respond with compassion and generosity. Pray for all agencies who are working to reach families in desperate need, including Habitat for Humanity who has been working in the region for 32 years.
