Join us in this prayer today. We'll be praying it together at 2 p.m. CDT, seeking justice for immigrant mothers and children being held
in Dilley, Texas, and elsewhere. Please share!
God of all peoples,
We pray for our brothers and sisters forced to flee their homelands by violence, corruption,
and poverty. May they find safety, security and welcome in our land.
We pray for children who live in fear of the loss of their parents, and mothers and fathers who
fear the pain of separation from their families. Be their hope as we work to repair the
brokenness of our unjust immigration system.
We pray for those who fan the flames of fear and discrimination, for those who cannot see the
gift that recent immigrants are to our communities. May they be touched with your divine
wisdom and compassion.
We pray for all those who on this day are unjustly detained, especially those families held in
Dilley, Texas. Be their strength and give us the courage to continue to demand an end to the
immoral detention of your people.
AMEN
