Yosemite Chapel in Snow ~ Bill Gallagher
Today begins the Eight Days of Prayer for Church Unity./ Jesus calls us to be one./ May the Christians of varying belief and practice/ learn unity through service and kindness./ We pray to the Lord.
Wednesday is the Day of Prayer for the Protection of Unborn Children./ We pray for a world where every child is welcomed and loved./ We pray to the Lord.
2020 has gotten off to a bad start:/ a commercial airplane has been shot out of the sky over Iran,/ a swarm of earthquakes in Puerto Rico has left thousands homeless,/ fires continue to ravage Australia./ We ask for heaven's comfort and strength./ We pray to the Lord.
At the start of the liturgical time called 'ordinary'/ may we discover the extraordinary love of God in our every day lives,/ in our joys and successes,/ but also in our struggles and challenges./ We pray to the Lord.
In an election year,/ we pray for the President of the United States/ and all who run for public office./ May the nation be protected from ugly division and violence./ We pray to the Lord.
For the safety of winter travelers,/ for those who can't pay their bills,/ who live without shelter,/ food or adequate clothing./ We ask blessings for those who help wherever there is human need./ For the healing of our families./ We pray to the Lord.
