“”…just as is grief, anger, and reflection, prayer is often for the purpose of awakening within us the pain of the injustice
others are facing so that we are willing to join them in working for change.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever. Amen. (Matthew 6:9-13)
