“Praying FOR someone is not the same as praying TO someone.”
Mea culpa! Perhaps I could’ve been clearer by saying,

Not to be found, nor does it need to be.
In Gen. Ch. 19, Lot ask the Angels not to destroy a city and they listen to his prayers :
"And when it was morning, the angels pressed him, saying: Arise, take thy wife, and the two daughters which thou hast: lest thou also perish in the wickedness of the city....And they brought him forth, and set him without the city...And Lot said to them: I beseech thee my Lord...There is this city here at hand, to which I may flee, it is a little one, and I shall be saved in it....And he said to him: Behold also in this, I have heard thy prayers, not to destroy the city for which thou hast spoken....Make haste and be saved there, because I cannot do any thing till thou go in thither. Therefore the name of that city was called Segor."
