PASTORAL PRAYER - Plymouth Congregational Church

Now we acknowledge, O God, that someone among us is outraged at injustice and we send our love to that
one.
Now we acknowledge, O God, that someone is afraid, and we send our love to that one.
Now we acknowledge, O God, that someone wants to cry, and we send our love to that one.
Now we acknowledge, O God, that someone is ill, and someone is worried, and someone is heartsick over a
mistake, and someone does not know where to turn, and we send our love to one another, and trust love’s
power—even in the face of the vast unkindness, prejudice and sorrow that scars your beautiful world.
You have blessed us. Let us be a blessing. In the name of Jesus who walked this way we strive to live we
pray. Amen.
