Social Justice Group Weekly Prayer for Non-violent Unity
Our three-community Social Justice group has committed to pray intentionally for the alleviation of the violence in our country. We invite anyone and everyone to pause, in whatever manner you choose, and pray with us on Fridays at noon. A starting point could be this from "Out of the Silence" - Jim Cotter Prayer Book
Creator God, faithful to your covenant with the earth,
steady our hearts and wills in times of great turbulence,
that we may indeed fulfill your purpose for us
as heralds of your just and lasting peace.
