God of rainbow,
We come to You in this moment of great challenge and ask for Your guidance and strength.
Help us to stand firm in the face of oppression,
To be voices for justice and love in a world that too often chooses hate.
Empower us to embrace and protect the diversity of Your creation,
To uplift the marginalized,
To defend women’s reproductive rights,
To proclaim that Black lives matter, today and always,
And to welcome immigrants and refugees with open arms and open hearts.
Fill our hearts with courage,
May we walk boldly in Your love,
Trusting in Your promise that justice will prevail
