God, we pray for the indigenous people of Canada affected by the Residential Schools. Let there be justice. Help those who lost loved ones and those traumatized to forgive and to heal. May our government know the best way for restitution and the wisdom to implement it.
God, thank you that the survivors of the Tulsa Massacre have been acknowledged. May they get the restitution they deserve. May the racial injustices done to all people be recognized and proper restitution be given. May the systemic racism be stopped and may we experience a real heart felt change of attitude towards those of minority groups throughout our nations.

Scriptures and meditations:
1 Corinthians 13:4. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Ephesians 1:9-10. 9 he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, 10 to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.
John 17: 23. I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.
Revelation 21: 3-4. “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
Thanks for praying with us!
