in your love, God of goodness,
And to your proclaim your wisdom,
the path of justice and peace.
We are thankful for your call,
For the Spirit that graces us,
For the social issues that engage us, and
For the communities that embrace us.
And called us by name.
Even in times of darkness
We are moved toward
The Light of your Word.
We form the word peace,
And we become, again and again,
Part of the chorus that echoes
Your music, your hope, your vision.
Thank you Lord for the Holy Spirit that works in our lives daily-working alongside us to learn self-control, love for others, showing peace and joy, being generous, being gentle and kind and to build our faith in loving God the Father, Jesus the Son and Mother Mary.
O God Source of Life, Creator of Peace,
to understand the futility of hatred and violence
and grant them the ability to stretch across
political, religious and national boundaries
so they may comfort horror and fear
by continuing together
in the search for justice, peace and truth.
With every fiber of our being
we beg You, O God, to help us not to fail nor falter. Amen.
