Evening Prayer – 12 June 2016

A full day of worship and study

A full day of Vacation Bible School preparation

A heart that is full of pain for my LGBTQ sisters and brothers who were massacred and for those who survived physically but are deeply scarred spiritually…

Lord, you call us to love all…

You call us to love even our enemies

Help us to see Christ in the face of the stranger

Help us to see Christ in the face of our enemies

Lord, help us to stand for Love and not Hate

Help us to make #LoveWins more than a slogan

Help us to be Love in a world of hate

As the Vesper Lights are lit

Lord, in your mercy, hear my prayer

Dona Nobis Pacem

Grant Us Peace ❤️💜💙💚💛

A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre as he contemplates Orlando and so many other times and places where hatred, ignorance, and bigotry have led to unspeakable acts of cowardice and evil…
