Prayer for 2024 Global Elections

God of peace, these times demand a change of heart:
to be, think, and act differently.

Pour out your Spirit on your people as we prepare to vote in 2024
in unprecedented numbers across the globe.

May we strive to make peace a reality by becoming agents of
reconciliation, transforming and transcending polarization,
misinformation, and division during this election year.

Help us recognize the reality of our interconnection and
interdependence and to make decisions for the common good.

Amen.

Prayer for Hispanic Heritage Month

God of all peoples and nations, Dios de todo el mundo

We praise you for your creativity made manifest in the gifts of tribes, ethnicities and cultures across the world. Each one bears your mark of goodness and grace.

We especially praise you and thank you for your children with Hispanic heritage—the descendants of Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America.

We find you in the beauty of their art, the joy of their song and their commitment to la comunidad.

We hear you in their call for a more just world—one of solidarity and liberation. We know you better because of the witness of their faith, may their faith and ours be bound together by your love in convivimiento—that spirit of unity, respect and empathy for which there is no substitute.

Keep all those with Hispanic heritage in your care, hold them in your love and make us fierce advocates and allies for welcome, inclusion and the common good.

We pray with Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, patroness of all the Americas.

Amen.
