Prayer

Welcome to the
Prayer Guide for
She’s Somebody’s Daughter

Our hope is that this guide provides unified direction in the way our community of love and hope prays for SSD, those we serve, and the issues surrounding human trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation.

Each prayer request is numbered and intended for that day of the month. For example, on the 12th of every month, all those using this prayer guide will be lifting up SSD’s Resource Partners.

We have seen many answers to prayer as God moves in and through She’s Somebody’s Daughter and we acknowledge that so much of this mission is simply beyond us. We are so excited to see what He does as we unify together in prayer.

Thank you again, and may you find favor as you serve in the spiritual realm.

Blessings!
