Daily Blessing Prayers through Lent have been created by Rev. Dr. Cynthia Davis, who has dedicated her life to serving others. She spent 24 years in nursing as a clinician, educator, and leader in trauma, surgical, and cardiovascular care. She later supported students as a college counselor, faculty member, and admissions manager.
Following a call to ministry, Dr. Davis pastored both local United Methodist congregations and served as district superintendent. She retired in 2022 to focus on home care ministry.
Dr. Davis holds a BSN from the University of Mississippi, an MS in Counseling from the University of Memphis, and a Doctor of Ministry from United Theological Seminary, where she focused on public health in the Black Church. A sought-after speaker and award recipient, she serves on multiple boards.
She and her husband, Dr. Elvernice “Sonny” Davis, have four children and three grandchildren.

We always give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. When we pray for you, we've done this since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and your love for all God's people. You have this faith and love because of the hope reserved for you in heaven.
You previously heard about this hope through the true message, the good news which has come to you.
My friends,
I just can't stop praising God for you.
Your faith is such an encouragement
and inspiration.
Knowing we walk this path together
Gives me such hope
that I never walk alone.
So grateful!
God’s love knows no boundaries,
is not filtered by time or distance, culture,
or life's frivolous notions.
Grateful to the Lord Jesus Christ
for the overflow of his goodness through you.
May God richly and abundantly bless you
for the wealth of your love
for the people of God
through Christ Jesus.
Amen.
