Today I have been in prayer with other clergy in solidarity with the people of Standing Rock. Throughout the day I have posted what I am praying. This is the last prayer of the day.
“You make me lie down in green pastures; you lead me beside still waters; you restore my soul.” Psalm 23:2
Night Prayer
For the provision of food,
water, and shelter
and the meeting of other needs for
the Water Protectors,
particularly those who plan to
witness in winter;
for the health and safety of all;
for those not a part of the Standing Rock camp
but who offer resources, aid, legal assistance and hope;
for rest at the end of a weary day
and for a quiet night.
Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
Amen
