A prayer for peace and unity
Gracious God, calm the storms of anger, prejudice, and division that tear our neighborhoods apart. Grant our leaders and citizens the wisdom to listen with empathy, the courage to seek justice, and the grace to forgive. Protect the vulnerable, comfort the grieving, and break down the walls of hostility that separate us. Inspire us to build bridges of understanding, so that every person may live in safety, dignity, and peace. Amen.
May these and all our intercessions be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength and our redeemer.
