Strengthen all who advocate for food security and move the hearts of leaders to act with compassion and urgency. Sustain your church to be a voice for justice and a source of comfort for those in need. We ask this through Jesus, the Bread of Life, who feeds the world in love. Amen.

Elevate their hearts, rooted in your peace, so that their voices may echo your justice. In the name of Christ. Amen.

Make your prophets and public witnesses steadfast, not conforming to the ways of this world in complacency, but always shaped by the hope of your kingdom. Renew their strength in the face of insult and injury.

Lord, in your mercy; Hear our prayer.
