Sovereign God, you alone are worthy of trust.

In hope we pray to you: God, in your justice, hear our prayer. 

Strengthen our connections to those who are vulnerable or voiceless in our communities.  

Teach us to pray with listening hearts, and give us courage to act for the good of others.  

Safeguard refugees, immigrants, and migrants who are unjustly targeted, exploited, or deported.  

Our Father . . . 

May God bless us and all people of good will to act justly, love tenderly, and walk humbly and courageously the way of the cross, through Jesus our brother.

Amen.
