Merciful God of justice and peace, this weekend we dedicate time and prayer in memory of all those who have died in the service of our country, even as we lament the violence of war. Comfort and sustain all those who still mourn. Heal those wounded in body, mind, or spirit. Bless those who courageously left home and family to follow their vision in the cause of justice and peace. Through our work for peace, bring freedom and dignity to all people, and help all leaders use diplomatic means to resolve conflicts so there is no need for wars again. We ask this in Your name.—AMEN.
