A Prayer for Our Community
On the National Day of Prayer
From “Your Daily Prayer:”
Gracious and Loving God,
We thank you for the gift of our community. Bless the people who live and work around us. We pray for protection over our neighborhoods, our schools, and our streets. Help us to build bridges of understanding, breaking down the barriers that divide us.
Give us the grace to see You in our neighbors, and the courage to serve one another with kindness, generosity, and love. May our community be a place of healing, where the lonely find friendship and those who are hurting find peace.
We ask for wisdom for our leaders and unity among all people. Let us be a source of hope and positive change.
In Your Name, we pray.
