A PRAYER FOR TODAY (available HERE as a video)
Loving God,
we pray for all children who are living on the streets - in the UK and beyond.
We pray for all who work with children - that they use wisdom and courage in noticing and helping the vulnerable.
We pray that governments, local decision makers, uniformed services and other organisations will prioritise their safety - giving them the dignity they deserve as being made in your image.
We pray, too, for those children who are experiencing relationship problems and feel they have nowhere to go;
help them to find support - whether online or in person.Lord Jesus - you said to let the children come to you. Help each of us be part of finding a safe place for children where they feel safe, protected, valued and provided for.
We ask this in your holy name. AMEN

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Loving God,
we remember once again the 96 and all those who have suffered,
and are still suffering as a result of the disaster at Hillsborough.
May they know and feel your love and strength surrounding them!
We thank you for all who have been a part of the journey for truth and justice
for what has been accomplished; and for what has yet to come.
We pray for healing of memories, for hope,
for the grace to forgive – ourselves and others,
and for your peace – rooted in the truth of your love.
We ask this in your holy name! AMEN
