God, our refuge, you are forever near to us. In faith we pray: Fill us with your faithful love, O God.

Come to the aid of women in crisis pregnancies, and help us advocate for their needs. 

Give us courage to speak for those whose voice is not heard. 

Imbue our leaders with goodwill, integrity, and Gospel wisdom. 

Our Father . . .

May God bring us out of darkness and the shadow of death, through Jesus our promised peace.

Amen.
