We are truly concerned about the elderly lady's well-being and safety. It's important to address both her suicidal thoughts and the potential danger of gas leaks in her home.
Firstly, we must ensure her spiritual and emotional well-being. As the further discussion of her circumstances will involve gas leaks and housing authority, it is easy to get distracted from the most important aspect of this discussion, the elderly lady's spiritual well being. It is only by the power of the Holy Spirit and faith in Jesus Christ that we can be saved. It is only in Jesus that we have access to God our Father. The salvation message is the most important thing we can discuss and pray for in this situation. We must pray for her faith in Jesus Christ. We must pray that she believes in Jesus Christ and that she has accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior. The Bible tells us,
For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
For God didn't send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.
John 3:16-17 WEB
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6:23 WEB
if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Romans 10:9-10 WEB
that if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Romans 10:9-10 WEB
As far as her housing situation, we pray for God's intervention for the housing authority to address the gas leak issue promptly. It is important to remember that we are responsible for those in authority over us just as they are responsible to take care of those that are under their authority.
Let's pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up this elderly lady who is feeling suicidal and uncertain about her safety at home. We pray for your comfort and peace to surround her, and we ask that you fill her with hope and a desire to live. Help her to know that you love her and have a purpose for her life.
We pray for her daughter, that you would give her wisdom and strength to support her mother during this difficult time. Help them to have open and honest conversations about the elderly lady's feelings and fears. We rebuke the spirit of suicide that is attacking her in Jesus' name.
Lord, we also bring before you the housing authority on the tribal reservation. We pray that you would prompt them to address the gas leak issue in the elderly lady's home and in the homes of others who may be at risk. We ask that you would soften their hearts and give them a sense of urgency to ensure the safety of their residents, that they would be more aware of their responsibilities to the people under their authority. Father, we pray for the salvation of the lady and the housing authority, that they would accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
Help us, Lord, to be mindful of the elderly and vulnerable in our own communities, and to advocate for their safety and well-being. We pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
You may find it helpful to involve local authorities, healthcare professionals, or community services to ensure the elderly lady's safety and well-being. It's crucial to address both her immediate emotional needs and her physical safety.
