God of truth, by your judgment you uphold justice. In hope we pray: 

Give us wisdom, O God.  

Prosper efforts toward peacemaking in the Middle East. 

Give us wisdom, O God.  

Help us confront oppression with prayer and action for justice. 

Give us wisdom, O God.  

Advance dialogue, understanding, and respect among Christian, Muslim, and Jewish people. 

Give us wisdom, O God.  

Our Father . . .  

May God make known to us the riches of the glory manifested in Christ Jesus, crucified and risen. Amen.
