For Those Who Whisper #LetUsPray*: A Weekly Centering Prayer for These Turbulent Times

Let Us Pray —

God of the whispers and the wailing
You hear Your people at any volume
God of the powerful and the promising
You hear Your people from any place

From where we live:
for those who wash down our streets
for those who deliver mail door to door 
for those who bag our groceries
for those who walk our furbabies
for those who visit our cities
for those who live nextdoor
for strangers in our midst
and for the struggling before us

From where we learn:
for those who guide our children safely across
for educators who shape lives
for custodians who tend to spaces
for staff who support all things
for paras who hold things together
for volunteers who do whatever is needed
for substitutes who step up and step in
and for those who are struggling before us

From where we govern:
for interns who yearn for what may be
for staffers who dig deep and know much
for admins who welcome the public
for clerks who keep things in order
for legislators who serve the public good
for janitors who keep the place running
for service workers who feed the people
and for those who are struggling before us

From where we worship:
for those who show up
for musicians who play
for educators who teach
for pastors who proclaim
for staff who support
for volunteers who serve
for sextons who tend 
and for those who are struggling before us

From these places and more
for the voices long silenced
to the voices amplified daily
for those who only know isolation
to those who bask in belonging
for all of these things
and for all of these people we pray

— AMEN.
