A Prayer for the People of Haiti

God of all Creation,

Again we hear the wailing of mothers who have lost their children;
Again we hear the screams of injured people,
And the silence of those being pulled from the rubble, from the mud.
Again we catch a glimpse of the poverty
So many in this world live in;
Again we see families without food and water,
In a world with so many resources.

God, embrace those who suffer,
Give them solace and
Support them in their grief.
Keep our eyes and our hearts open.

Keep us from turning away.
We are called to witness the Crucified Christ
As we are called to witness to the
Pain and poverty of these victims.

Help us to your agents of healing,
Bringing the Light of your justice and peace
To all darkened regions of this earth.
Have mercy on us all, God of Heaven
And of Earth. Amen.

Prayer for Victims of the Mudslides and Earthquake
