Opening Prayer
Saving God, there is great suffering in this world. Your people are afflicted in many ways. Forgive us when we only recognize our own turmoil, and teach us to be ever mindful of the pain all your children endure. Lord, we do not want the difficulties we face to keep our hearts from you; allow your mercy to mend our brokenness. You have been our God and we trust your word for us! In the name of Christ our Lord and redeemer we pray. Amen.
