EPPN Prayers Week of July 18

Read this week’s prayers from Episcopal Public Policy Network here.

The prayer that we highlight this week is:

For Those Who Will Go Hungry This Week
God of mercy and justice, we lift before you the millions in our nation and around the world who face empty cupboards and unanswered cries for help.  As food banks grow overwhelmed and safety nets unravel, we remember that your Son taught us that when we feed the hungry, we serve Christ himself.  Strengthen the volunteers, the caregivers, and community leaders who labor to meet their rising need and stir our hearts to generosity, courage, and advocacy.  All this we ask for the sake of your holy name.  Amen.
