O God, We come to worship today to hear your good news and worship you above all others. Fill us with your love that passes all understanding. We pray this together in the name of Jesus the Christ, Amen.
We pray for those who do not have a safe home to return to at the end of the day. We pray for those living in exile and for those whose daily choices are made under the shadow of frightening power.
We pray for the ill and grieving especially for those whom we love and lift before you now…PAUSE. May they experience comfort in the touch of healing hands and hearts.
We pray for all those who walk a difficult path. Grant them courage and discernment. Shield them from danger and uphold them when they are road-weary.
We pray for leaders both secular and religious, that they may seek and find wise counsel. May their decisions lead in directions of peace and wholeness.
We pray for your church, that we may remember your call and your sending. AMEN.
