Bishop Says!
Apr 17
Risen Lord, you greet fearful disciples with peace. Speak peace into societies gripped by anxiety and violence. Train us to reject fear-driven injustice and to embody courageous love that builds trust, heals wounds, and restores shared life.
Apr 16
Creator God, resurrection announces new creation. Renew systems grown corrupt and lives grown weary. Shape us as stewards of your reconciling work, tending justice with patience and courage until communities reflect your vision of flourishing and peace.
Apr 15
God of liberation, your resurrection breaks every chain. Free communities bound by poverty, racism, and fear. Teach us to participate in your renewing work, so policies, practices, and hearts reflect the freedom you desire for all your children.
Apr 14
Risen Christ, awaken hope where despair has taken root. Let resurrection shape our pursuit of justice, restoring lives crushed by violence and neglect. May we live as Easter people, proclaiming through word and deed that death, injustice, and hatred never have the final word.
Apr 13
Risen Christ, embolden our witness. Where truth is costly, give courage. May our lives testify that resurrection reshapes priorities, confronts injustice, and calls us into faithful, hopeful action for the sake of the world.
