A Prayer for the Conflict in the Caucasus
God whose love encompasses all places,
God whose love embraces all people,
May your children in Georgia, Russia,
And your children in South Ossetia, North Ossetia, and Abkhazia
Know your love.
May they hear you calling them from conflict into peace
And may they respond.
May your love dissolve hatred and anger
And lead your children to work for justice and harmony.
Comfort those who grieve the death of loved ones.
Strengthen those who have been driven from their homes.
Bless the efforts of those who pursue peace.
Inspire the nations and peoples of the world to respond.
We pray in the name of the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ.
Amen.
