God of peace, we pray for those who have served our nation We pray for those who have fought, whose spirits and bodies are scarred by war, We pray for those who serve us now, especially for those in harm’s way. Turn the hearts and minds of our leaders and our enemies May the peace you left us, the peace you gave us, Christ Jesus, hear us! Lord Jesus, hear our prayer! Amen. |

Prayer for a Time of Hunger ~ from Bread for the World,
www.bread.org, 2009
God our sustainer, we ask you to pour your powerful Spirit into
all who are empty this day: Fill the hearts of persons who are
troubled. Fill the minds of men and women who are confused.
Fill the stomachs of your children who are hungry. Fill the souls
of people who are feeling lost. Fill the lives of all who need you,
but do not know you. May your Spirit fill us all to overflowing,
dear Lord, and may we be inspired to share our abundance with
others, so that there will be no more empty hearts and minds,
stomachs and souls. We pray all this in the name of Jesus
Christ, who fills lives with your endless grace. Amen.
