A Prayer for Women made Weapons of War
Mothering God, you created us in dignity and diversity to reflect your image.
We pray for places in the world where conflict scars your face,
where the peace You left us seems beyond reach.
Help us to remember your daughters, whose bodies are landscapes for war.
Guard their dignity, protect their wellbeing, embolden their courage.
May we be present with you, as you uphold women peacemakers who transform communities in love and justice.
In hope and solidarity we pray.
Amen.
