God of the oppressed, you bend down to lift up those in need. In trust we pray: Rush to our aid, O God.

For those who struggle with their faith or faith communities, we pray:

For those caught in the throes of war, corrupt leadership, or violence, we pray:

For those who experience chaos, confusion, or despair, we pray:

Our Father . . .

May God turn our sorrow and sadness into joy and gladness, through Jesus our Savior.

Amen.
