Creator God, we turn to You.
Be with all those mourning, injured, displaced and dispossessed in this escalating war.
Guide our actions, we pray, as we reach out in solidarity and love to those in need of safety and refuge.
Nurture compassion and steadfastness in first responders and caregivers; may they too receive care and support.
Touch the hearts and minds of leaders everywhere to work courageously for peace with justice for all.
God of love and justice, be with us as we seek to do your will.
Amen.
