The Prayers of Our People

A Prayer for the people of Ukraine –

O Lord our Governor, whose glory is in all the world: We commend this nation to thy merciful care, that, being guided by thy Providence, we may dwell secure in thy peace. Grant to the President of the United States, the leaders of Ukraine and Russia, and to all in authority, wisdom and strength to know and to do thy will. Fill them with the love of truth and righteousness, and make them ever mindful of their calling to serve this people in thy fear; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen. – BCP 820

A Prayer for the suffering people in the Gaza Strip –

Holy God, there are no words left to describe our pain We can only echo the cries of the Psalmist: “Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am in distress; my eyes grow weak with sorrow, my soul and body with grief” (Psalm 31:9). Lord, continue to be near to the grieving, the terrified, the displaced, the hungry. Hold them in their suffering and do not let this evil stand. We pray for an immediate cessation of violence and for justice to come to Gaza and all the people of the Middle East.

Lord in your mercy…hear our prayer.
