Prayer: Breaking Down Barriers


Here’s a prayer of petition from John Bucki, S.J. It was posted on the Social Justice Resource Center website.

Prayer


Lord, Jesus Christ
who reached across the ethnic boundaries
between Samaritan, Roman and Jew
who offered fresh sight to the blind and freedom to captives,
help us to break down the barriers in our community,
enable us to see the reality of racism and bigotry,
and free us to challenge and uproot it
from ourselves, our society and our world.
