Job losses due to government spending cuts in the USA affect thousands of people directly and many others through pauses or cuts in program or service delivery. Additionally, tariffs on international trade will cause financial strain on various industries in both Canada and the USA and also Mexico, and China. Pray for those who are fearful of affording basic necessities. Pray that churches would respond to the needs in their communities with generosity and compassion even as they may be facing strain themselves.
