URGENT PRAYER REQUEST:

We have just received word that Rep. Andy Barr’s (KY) wife, Carol, passed away suddenly in her sleep at age 39.  We are asking for immediate prayer coverage for Rep. Barr and his family.  He has two precious girls ages 8 and 5.  His daughter’s names are Eleanor and Mary Clay.

Rep. Barr asked for prayers for his family and especially noted Carol’s strong faith in her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

If you can imagine, both Rep. Barr and his wife, Carol, were scheduled to be on a prayer and fellowship call with members of Congress and congressional spouses tonight through Alabaster House, a ministry friend of Intercessors for America. Pray that the Barr family would experience the comfort of God.

Please pray that God would move hearts of all leaders on Capitol Hill to support Rep. Barr during this time, pray for him, and help him to know that he is not alone.

LORD of HOST and AMIGHTY SOVEREIGN GOD, we humbly come before you and seek you on behalf of Rep Andy Barr and his two precious daughters Eleanor and Mary Clay. We confess that you alone are in control of all seasons of life. You know what you’re doing and we are not in control. May Andy trust you right now in this circumstance of losing his wife suddenly to death. Provide to him and his family the means to persevere through the loss, continuity to turn to you Lord Jesus time and time again in prayer, comfort in the pain and unbearable grief, peace and hope for today and the days ahead. Surround him with friends and family and their church family to provide encouragement along the way. May this family experience your great love and affection for them anew and forever praise your Great Name!
Sincerely,
Kathy in Kentucky

A precious wife and mother so soon – only 39 – gone from our midst! BUT G O D. Before we were born, He knew our lifespan and Carol’s name was written on the palm of His hand and He knew. Psalms 116:15 “Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.” May our loving Father uphold Andy, Eleanor and Mary Clay during this sad time and be their special strength and support in the days ahead. Love and prayers to all.
