prayer for the hurricane victims

Lord, we pray for those caught up in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and ask that the light of your presence may sustain them through the difficult days and weeks ahead as families return home and begin rebuilding their lives.


We pray also for those helping in the stricken areas, for relief workers and their families, that you may be with them in their struggle to reestablish order from chaos and to bring comfort to those in need. We ask this in the name of your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.
