Creator God, our hearts are filled with sadness, anger, concern, and fear as we consider all that is happening in Kenosha. We lift before you all whose lives have been impacted, especially Jacob Blake and his family, those injured and killed in the protests, business owners whose livelihood has been destroyed, protestors crying out for justice and reform, police officers struggling to serve and protect, elected officials working to address longstanding injustice and discrimination, residents who are fearful and grief-stricken, and the congregations, pastors, and leaders who are trying to hold a space for lament, confession, renewal, and transformation. Grant us peace, grant us courage, grant us hope, that we might find our way through this current time and find ourselves more closely connected to you and to one another as we inch our way toward the beloved community you desire for us all. Through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

LOST IN THE EDITING PROCESS? - From Genesis: “And God rested on the seventh day from all the work he had done in creation. But on the eighth day God said, ‘Let us make masks to protect all that we have created.’ And God made masks to cover the human mouths and noses to protect creation. And God saw that masks were good.” From Exodus there is this lost commandment: “You shall wear a face mask and practice social distancing. You shall honor one another in this way.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Wear Your Masks Every Day and Everywhere, please! * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Teach us to see the face of your Son on every person we meet. Instruct us to see Jesus in every person, knowing that every person is your daughter or son, your creation. Amen.
