Prayer for Israel

“Master of Compassion, help us hold the humanity and the heartache of the Jewish people while also holding the humanity and the dignity of the Palestinian people.”

“We reach to touch souls
as luminous as mirrors / so we might reflect light back to each other.”

Shadows of War

“Maybe you don’t know about my / passion for justice and integrity.”
