“Flourishing Together”
is our June theme
Prayer for Juneteenth
by Rev. Addae Ama Kraba
Creator of All,
As believers in justice,
Woven into a single garment of life.
Making us one with the human family,
Let us rejoice for those who safely
passed through the shades of night
towards the daylight of freedom.
Spirit of all possibilities,
May we be blessed with true freedom,
Free of all oppressions.
Spirit of hope,
With grateful hearts
We lift our voices in shared solidarity,
Holding each other safe
In the fire of justice and the light of love,
Amen, Blessed Be.

“When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around.
But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.” –Mark Twain
