We pray for nations experiencing violence and war, including Venezuela, Ukraine and Russia, the Middle East, South Sudan and others. We ask God to guide leaders, diplomats and peacemakers as they seek lasting solutions and peace. May the Spirit inspire us to be advocates and bearers of peace, hope and justice in our communities and the world.

Holocaust Remembrance Day, January 27, 2026

No thanks. We're busy forgetting.
Forgetting it's happening again in Palestine.
In Minnesota. Here. Now.
Forgetting our own capacity to justify cruelty.
Forgetting it starts with rounding up all “those” people.
Forgetting the thousands hauled off.
(Unmarked SUVs are better than cattle cars, no?)
Forgetting those starving in occupied lands,
or stowed in concentration camps —
well, let's call them detention centers.
Forgetting there is a part of us that believes
there is a “they” who are ruining life for “us.”
Forgetting we are family, all of us.
Forgetting we are one.
Forgetting our way.
Lost, we are caught in our own death camp.

So then we start by remembering we are one,
and their pain is ours
and their hope is ours,
and then we begin to remember
the way out.

Beatitudes

Jesus began to speak and taught them...
—Matthew 5.2

Blessed are you who have nothing to offer,
for you are offered everything.

Blessed are you who are broken-hearted for the world,
for God weeps with you, and will rejoice with you.

Blessed are you who do not seek to dominate,
for love dominates your life.

Blessed are you who sacrifice for the sake of justice,
for you will know victory.

Blessed are you who are gentle,
for God's gentleness enfolds you.

Blessed are you who seek only love,
for God will be everywhere for you.

Blessed are you who remain peaceful in conflict,
for so you reveal God.

Blessed are you who are treated harshly,
for God treats you to the entire realm of God.
Blessed are you who are punished for your compassion,
for this is the way of the cross.
