God of the faithful, we give thanks for Your abundant blessings.
Thank You for our fathers and mothers in the faith who,
sometimes with significant risk, stood up for their beliefs.
Give us the courage to speak out and speak up,
that we might share Your merciful love and grow in grace.
In Your holy name, we pray. Amen.
