That the universal church may find common ground in how we love and care for those who are in need.
O Lord hear our prayer
That our country, its leaders and its people, will look for ways to support and love one another and honor our differences.
O Lord hear our prayer
That we may look at the rest of the world as part of our family and look for ways to feed, clothe, and make healthy those who are in need.
O Lord hear our prayer
That we may work hard in our own communities to lift up those who are near us to make it a better place.
O Lord hear our prayer
That those who are sick, in pain and suffering may find comfort and peace.
O Lord hear our prayer
That we may honor those who have gone before us by living lives formed by them.
O Lord hear our prayer.
