National Day of Truth & Reconciliation

 

Let us pray together:

Creator and Sustainer of Life,

Grant us Grace and Mercy for the difficult journey ahead. We seek to repair our past, going forward on a shared road of blessing and goodwill.

Grant us Peace and Knowledge to know your ways. We seek a new path that supports those in need and those who struggle in these times.

Grant us Purpose and Commitment to make collective choices. We seek to act for the care of our neighbours, and for the wellbeing of our communities.

May we contend with our history in healing ways. May we seek a new unity and the promise of a new beginning.

Lord Hear Our Prayer.

Amen.
