Prayers of the People
June 7th, 2026
PRAYER FOR OUR LIVES
God of Universal Light
Across all nations.
A single Sun warming everyone.
Bloom in equity and beckon all underneath to stretch upwards.
Beams so large there is room to dance.
So all may thrive.
PRAYER FOR OUR COMMUNITY
God of Local Summer
Melt the divisions that separate us.
Shine upon our neighbors.
Enrich, engage, and re-new
that which was hidden in the shadows.
Vitamins of gold,
an ultraviolet boost,
Life in full for all.
PRAYER FOR OUR WORLD
God of the Light Within
My Inner Spark
Stay lit, stay strong, stay close.
Reveal a clear voice and a strong soul.
The same sun that shines
out there,
is alive
in here.
Let there be light.

Once a month, we invite a member of our community to write and share prayers for the world, our community, and our lives during the service. In between, the body sings a refrain in spiritual agreement of the prayers. The goal is to hear from a diversity of voices in this space (in age, gender, culture, etc), and to spark creativity and encouragement in your own prayer life. Email Katherine if you’re interested in sharing your prayers with the community.
