 The Mountain Talk morning prayer brought to you each weekday morning by the Mountain Echo newspaper. Our Heavenly Father, today we pray for those who mourn the loss of loved ones. As we think of how many people in our community have had loved ones pass away, we ask that through the power of your Holy Spirit, you would keep your hand upon them, that you would guide them and lift them up, that you would encourage them and remind them of how much they are loved.
