Redeeming God, you are our refuge. With undying trust we pray:

Be our rock of safety, God.

Rescue those who suffer domestic abuse.

Be our rock of safety, God.

Protect children from violence, unjust labor, and environmental harm.

Be our rock of safety, God.

Shine truth on lies, slander, and deceitful speech.

Be our rock of safety, God.

Our Father . . .

May the Spirit of God inspire us to run the path of God’s commands with the inexpressible delights of love, in Jesus our brother. Amen.
