Prayer: Made in Your Image


Here’s a prayer of petition from the Episcopal Diocese of West Virginia.

Prayer for an End to Racism


Creator of all people,
in our amazing diversity of size, shape, color, and giftedness:
guide us, by your grace,
to recognize the beauty and fitness
of all whom you have made in your own image.

Give us gifts of humility and generosity of spirit
to recognize in all people, the face of our Savior, Jesus,
and to practice his commandment to “love one another,”
toward the end of bringing harmony and peace
among persons of all colors, origins, and abilities,
for the sake of your Kingdom.
