Prayer for Minnesota
Holding the people of Minnesota in the light after another murder today as the terror of ICE continues to reign at the behest of the President. In the midst of this grief and pain, may the light of truth, compassion, justice, solidarity and human dignity burn brighter and brighter. I see it in the witnesses, protestors, and clergy on the streets. I discern it in some leaders of integrity striving to protect the targeted and marginalized against tyranny. I hear it in the words sung by neighbours to other neighbours who are staying in their houses in real fear. I feel it in the solidarity pouring in from farther and farther afield. This light may flicker but it will persevere. We are with you.
