Dear Church Family,
As our hearts are heavy from the events of the last few days here in Minnesota, we turn to God for peace. Be with all who are hurting, comfort those who are scared, and hold our communities in Your care. Give wisdom and courage to our leaders, and guide us toward justice, compassion, and healing.

Many of you know that I, myself, have walked through troubled times. One practice that has helped me is using a God Box, writing down my worries and placing them in the box, trusting that the Lord will carry my burdens so I can be free. I offer this to you in the hope that it may also bring you peace.

Blessings to you all,
Pastor Tina
🕯️🕊️🤍

Merciful God,
Your children are crying out in need of Your mercy and grace. Lord, be with the hundreds of clergy and laity from the United Methodist Church, along with our ecumenical and interfaith partners and community members, who are bearing witness across the state of Minnesota.

We believe there is a better way forward. Be near to each of Your precious children, knowing that all are hurting in their own way. May the love of Jesus Christ continue to shine through community members who seek to do Your will by helping, loving, and standing up for their neighbors.

Guide us with compassion, courage, and hope as we walk together toward justice and peace.

We pray all of this in Your precious name.
Amen. 🙏
