Today is Ash Wednesday.

Gracious God, out of your love and mercy you breathed into dust the breath of life, creating us to serve you and our neighbors. Call forth our prayers and acts of kindness, and strengthen us to face our mortality with confidence in the mercy of your Son, Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. —Bread for the Day

Let us join in prayer for the city of Springfield, at the news of continued threats of violence within their community:

God of peace,
In a world so wired and interconnected,
our anxious hearts are pummeled by an endless barrage of troubling news (bomb threats, hate speech, divisions among community members).

We are daily aware of more grief, O Lord, than we can rightly consider,
of more hostility, hatred, horror, and injustice.

But you are not disquieted by news of cruelty.
You are neither anxious nor overwhelmed.
You carried the full weight of the suffering of the world all the way to the cross.
You carry it, still.

When the cacophony unsettles us, remind us that you are present with us.

Justice and mercy, healing and redemption are the work you are doing in the world.

Guard us from shutting down our empathy or walling off our hearts.

Move each of us to respond with compassion, to be extensions of your presence that is already there.

Give us wisdom in the face of troubling news reports.

Give us discernment to know when to act, when to speak out, when to place our anxiety at your feet, and when to pray that your kingdom of peace be present within our world.
Amen.

Happy New Year!

A New Year's Message from Bp. Dillahunt:

"As we welcome 2026, we embrace the promises and hopes that this new year holds. As people of God—congregations, the Southern Ohio Synod, and the broader Church—we are reminded that God’s mercy remains fresh each day as we walk together into this new season.

We do not face this journey alone. Christ, crucified and risen, walks with us, and the Holy Spirit empowers and sustains us every step of the way."
