Our team at the Evangelical Alliance NI are deeply shocked by the violent attack in North Belfast last night.

Here is a prayer you may wish to pray yourself, or with others…



Father, we pray for Northern Ireland today following this violent attack in North Belfast.

Our hearts break over this crime.
We pray for the man who was attacked and for his family, healing and justice.
We thank you for those who intervened and pray for everyone impacted in the wider community and online.

We understand that many people will feel angry and some will want to protest lawfully.
We pray against rioting and the intimidation of people because of their skin colour or religion.
We pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ, our friends and neighbours from other places who live here.

Draw near to everyone who feels more vulnerable and unsafe today.

We thank you for a strong and united response from most political leaders.
We pray for wisdom for police and civic leaders.
We pray for your local Church, in the difficult task of testifying to your truth and grace.
In the days ahead, please create spaces for people to air concerns and address fears in respectful ways.

Lord, as ever we pray for your kingdom come, in Northern Ireland, as it is in heaven.
