Listening God, you hear the cries of the vulnerable. We pray for the many migrants who struggle for their asylum claims to be heard and those whose claims for asylum protection are denied. God, pour out your Spirit upon them, and fill their hearts with comfort and hope. Empower all of us to make just decisions and to be good advocates so that our hospitality of migrants might honor you. And all for your name’s sake. AMEN

Almighty and everlasting God, you have given to us your servants grace, by the confession of a true faith, to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and in the power of your divine Majesty to worship the Unity: Keep us steadfast in this faith and worship, and bring us at last to see you in your one and eternal glory, O Father; who with the Son and the Holy Spirit live and reign, one God, for ever and ever. AMEN

Almighty and most merciful God, we remember before you all poor and neglected persons whom it would be easy for us to forget: the homeless and the destitute, the old and the sick, and all who have none to care for them. Help us to heal those who are broken in body or spirit, and to turn their sorrow into joy. Grant this, Father, for the love of your Son, who for our sake became poor, Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN
