A Prayer for Appalachia
Gracious Creator God. We thank you for the rich texture of our land---for the hollows, rivers, tree covered mountains and rolling hills. We bring before You those who, for reasons of injustice cannot share in the riches and bounty You provide in these hills. Send your spirit to nourish, strengthen and guide us to be helpful companions with those who thirst for righteousness, justice and peace. Where we can find the way, with whom we can make a difference we seek your guidance. All this we ask through Jesus on whom Your spirit rested in all power to proclaim release for the captives, the recovery of sight for the blind, and freedom to the oppressed. And in all that is before us, help us to remember that this is the year of the Lord's favor. AMEN
