Reflection

“The challenge of social justice is to evoke a sense of community that we need to make our nation a better place, just as we make it a safer place.”
~ Marian Wright Edelman

Prayer

God of justice,

It seems sometimes that we have grown so far apart from one another in our families, in our communities, in our nation, and around the world. Give us the grace of your Holy Spirit that we might see in one another friends rather than enemies. Give us the courage to forge communities of trust and hope and rekindle the bonds that unite us as human beings made in your image and likeness. In your name, we pray. Amen.
