Sovereign God, you blessed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with your spirit of unity and peace.

We praise you and pray: Just God, hear our prayer.

Help us to secure the human rights of migrants and immigrants, refugees and the poor.

Prosper efforts to make health care and education affordable for all people. 

Further efforts toward legislation and policies regarding human rights. 

Our Father . . .

May God bless all Christians with obedient and loving hearts, so that we may receive and respect the

diversity of gifts through which the Church bears Christ’s love to the world.

Amen.
