Pray for the Widow
Believing in the power of prayer
For the Widow is a ministry based on Faith. While we believe in the importance of intentional planning, financial prudence, and wise choices, we also trust that the Lord is leading this ministry. That is why prayer partners are an essential part of supporting For the Widow.
Each quarter, we will have a list of specific ways you can pray for the widows, the community, and the ministry.

Specifically, pray for the funding needed for the program, all of our teachers who will be participating, and our widows to bring their patience and determination to this new challenge!
