Let’s pray together:
Lord, as I come to you in the heat of the day, I pray for our local, state and national leaders.
Provide them with courage as they stand in the face of difficult decisions; give them humility in this
moment so that they might seek wisdom from others and from you; and give them compassion and
the ability to remember they are called to be servants. We also pray for people to come together
during this time of distress, that we might be united to protect the most vulnerable and be willing to
help everyone. Cause an abundance of your grace to fall upon us. For we pray Jesus’ name.
Amen.
