Help us to accept your peace, which we may not always understand or comprehend, to guard our hearts & minds. Help us to be part of that peace for others.

Forgive us our abuse of power, our complicity of silence, our unwillingness to see the consequences on those we are called to serve.

Help us to live & lead with integrity & authenticity, an openness & honesty of our own struggles as we offer to you all that we are.

Give us courage in the face of fear, bless us with your presence of wisdom & guidance in those who counsel, who prescribe, who triage, who listen.

Create in our structures & leaders contrite hearts, help us to reflect on the damage we ourselves inflict when we ignore & other.
