PRAYER God of peace, God of justice God of freedom, We give you thanks for your cadences of peace, justice, and freedom Cadences that have surged  through the lives of Bob and Kim and Morgan and Darren and Matt and Rachel and all that nameless mass of  risk-takers who have been obedient to your promises and susceptible to your dreams. Deliver us from amnesia concerning their courage in the face of violence, their peace-making against hate, and their hunger for you in a devouring economy. Deliver us from amnesia: turn our memory into hope, turn our gratitude into energy, turn our well-being into impatience. That these same cadences of your will may pulse even among us.   Amen.
