No longer will violence be heard in your land, nor ruin or destruction within your borders, but you will call your walls Salvation and your gates Praise. (Isaiah 60:18)

   

Let us pray: Most gracious God, we acknowledge that truth that we were created in Your image and that You breathed life into us. You have blessed us abundantly and continued to sustain our needs. Yet, there are those who turn to evil and commit ruthless acts against their fellowmen. We sincerely ask You Lord, that you free them from sin. May they walk in peace and enjoy a life full of your blessings instead. These we pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
