9/11 Commemoration

Prayer

God who is eternal love,

On a day of remembrance like this, recalling the many who lost their lives and those who love and miss them, it may be wise to save breath and welcome a more silent spirit of prayer. No matter who we are or where we are from, may we enter the quiet of our hearts and find you there. And in that place of presence with you, humbly we ask for your promise of peace to come. May a peace beyond understanding ground us today. Amen.

Call to Action

Spend time in silence today. Be especially sensitive to others who may have deep and lasting pains from the events of 9/11. Embody compassion.
