Hi, Yes. A little more idiomatic would be I prayed for all those people who came to my rescue. I saw a cartoon today in which *** says to one of his angels,'Look at this.

Yes.

(Possible meanings: The rescue was in the past - and after you were rescued, you prayed for them. OR While the rescue was going on, you knew people were trying to save you, and you prayed they would be successful.)
