God of day and darkness, your mercies are unfathomable.

In trust we pray: ℟. Guide us in your truth, O God.

Unite us as one body in Christ. ℟.

Disclose and remedy the darkness of deceit, cruelty, and greed in unjust rulings. ℟.

Give practical, emotional, and social support to caregivers. ℟.

Our Father . . .

May God bless us, guard us in peace, and bring joy to our hearts, through Jesus our brother. Amen
