Beyond 100 Days of Prayer

Written on: June 13, 2017

The 100 Days of Prayer campaign reached thousands of people who came together in prayer for those vulnerable to policy shifts during the first 100 Days of the Trump Administration.

It has been a time of belief in prayer and action.

We recognize the need for prayer continues for our country and world. Moving forward, we offer Beyond 100 Days of Prayer. This resource is an opportunity to grow further through prayer, reflection, and conversation. Beyond 100 Days of Prayer will offer four posts each month – available as a PDF page that draw from various sources like Healing the Heart of Democracy by Parker Palmer. We hope this continues to build a future of hope for one another and for future generations.

Continuing in Prayer

God of love and hope, remember your people in this time of change. We yearn for reconciliation and unity with each other. God of wisdom and mercy, grant us patience to listen; compassion to be open to other views and opinions; generosity to forgive and grace to change. As you taught us to love our neighbor, compel us to be healing instruments of unity and reconciliation. We pray that you give us strength and encourage our nation to move forward in unity. Amen.

Reflecting and Sharing

1. As we move forward praying in community for the vulnerable in our midst locally and globally, how do you engage your citizen’s heart in guiding people into your life and actions?
2. Through prayer and conversation, a sense of community that has been created. As we move into the future we are challenged to create together a community of conversation that invites hope. What experiences of connection have you had that give you hope?
