Most Holy God, in company with the apostles and all the saints we praise you and pray: 

Be with us, O God.  

Sensitize our society and Church to treat people who struggle with mental illness with compassion and care. 

Be with us, O God.  

Inspire creative and peaceful ways to celebrate diversity and address racism. 

Be with us, O God.  

Uphold efforts to secure the rights of immigrants, children, and elders. 

Be with us, O God. 

Our Father . . .  

May God prosper the work of our hands and hearts, through Christ our peace. Amen.
