If like me (Cindy), your heart is aching for the world and all of God's Beloved children, we can pray. We can too often forget the power of prayer. The bad news can make us feel that we are in a wasteland. However, we are promised For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. God does hear and honor prayer offered in sincerity and love.
Prayers are needed for all the disasters of earthquake, fire, and flood across the globe due to climate change; the resurgence of the Taliban in Afghanistan; the world-wide on-going COVID 19 Pandemic; the racial, social, economic, medical inequities facing so many; the misinformation feeding fears and divisions; and the multitude of other trauma we are assailed with from our news feed and all media, and so much more.
I invite you join in prayer using this Litany (from my website) adapted from the Great Litany in the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer, or your own prayers.
Another tangible way to help is a donation to Episcopal Relief and Development or many other groups.
