Almighty and merciful God,
whose Son became a refugee and had no place to call
his own;
look with mercy on those who today are fleeing from
danger,
homeless and hungry.
Bless those who work to bring them relief;
inspire generosity and compassion in all our hearts;
and guide the nations of the world towards that day
when all will rejoice in your Kingdom of justice and
of peace;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
