Prayer for the Homeless

9/28/2018

0 Comments

 
Hear our prayer today for all women and men, boys and girls who are homeless this day.
For those sleeping under bridges, on park benches, in doorways or bus stations.
For those who can only find shelter for the night but must wander in the daytime.
For families broken because they could not afford to pay the rent.
For those who have no relatives or friends who can take them in.
For those who have no place to keep possessions that remind them who they are.
For those who are afraid and hopeless.
For those who have been betrayed by our social safety net.
For all these people, we pray that you will provide shelter, security and hope.
We pray for those of us with warm houses and comfortable beds
that we not be lulled into complacency and forgetfulness.
Jesus, help us to see your face in the eyes of every homeless person we meet
so that we may be empowered through word and deed,
and through the political means we have,
to bring justice and peace to those who are homeless.  Amen.

Prayer for Hurricane Victims

9/12/2018

0 Comments

 
God of the heavens: nature and all that you have created are truly awesome. Often, we take these wonders for granted. Teach us to cherish all of your gifts. Try as we might, we know that we cannot control the oceans, the mountains, or the weather. We also firmly believe that ever since the time of Noah, you do not send floods, make the earth shake, or dispatch weather formations, such as hurricanes, as warnings or punishments. So we ask, as this hurricane approaches land and our brothers and sisters, that you shelter all who will be in its path. Watch over everyone, their loved ones, friends, and fellow people, many of whom are preparing to evacuate. Guard them as they prepare, perhaps to leave their homes again. Give them strength, courage, and resolve to ride out this storm; answer their prayers and ours that they be blessed with goodness and be spared from harm. Amen.
