A Prayer for ALL People

Let us hold in our prayers,
The women, men and children who have had their lives forever changed by earthquakes and have been injured or killed.
Let us hold in our prayers,
The family members and friends who live far away and who feel hopeless and helpless to support their family and friends.
Let us hold in our prayers,
Relief workers who have been injured.
Let us hold in our prayers,
The non-human beings that have been injured or killed.
Dear Unknown, Unknowable, Yet Known by Many Names,
We call out to you in this time of uncertainty, loss and pain.  May we have courage and compassion to support the people of Haiti and Chile.
May we have courage and compassion to work for economic  justice. May we have peace of mind and the inner wisdom to know that our work for economic justice is not in vain.
In the Spirit of all that came before us. In the Spirit of all that is present this moment. In the Spirit of all that will manifest in the future. We offer this prayer.
Amen and Blessed It Be.
