EPPN Weekly Prayers April 25

The Episcopal Public Policy Network invites us to join us as they share new prayers each week for the vulnerable among us facing challenges, fears, and threats.

 Prayer for Government Leadership 

Holy God, Three in One, we raise to you our concerns about the consolidation of power in the executive branch of the federal government. We hear and echo the cries of those asking for Congress and the courts to hold fast to the checks and balances that have helped provide for greater safety and equality for the most vulnerable throughout this country’s history. We ask you to grant wisdom and fortitude to state and local leaders, that they may use the authority granted to them justly and in service of those most in need. We fervently pray for the strength and health of our system of government in this pivotal time. Amen.
