  • A Prayer for Sandy Hook Elementary School, Newtown, Connecticut

    Eternal God,
    hear your diverse people
    as a world unites in prayer and compassion
    for the people of Newtown Connecticut.
    We pray for all involved in the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
    Bless with your kindness those who speak to the broken-hearted.
    Bless the teachers, paramedics, medical staff and police
    with courage, skill and wisdom.
    Bless those who mourn.
    Bless those who grieve
    and comfort the bewildered.
    Help us each to build a world safe and fit for children.
    Amen. Amen. Amen.

    Wow! What a succinct and powerful statement of faith — in so few words. In this early very gray and cold morning the Saturday after Easter in Cleveland, Ohio, I sit quietly to absorb this before husband and child awake. My heart and spirit felt a start when I read and re-read these words. Thank you.

    Yours
