Celebrating the Gospel of Jesus Christ: Believing, Witnessing, Teaching, Sharing, and Serving with all.
Creator God We Pray:
We come before you today to remember and honour the missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQIA+ people. We pray for comfort and healing for the families and communities affected by this tragedy. Empower those who feel the urge to harm to find strength and seek pathways towards recovery. May justice be served, and may their spirits find peace. Help us to stand in solidarity, to raise our voices, and to work towards a world where every life is valued and protected. Amen.

May 5 is NATIONAL RED DRESS DAY, - a time to raise awareness of the ongoing crisis of violence against Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit people, and to act in response to the exhausted calls for redress, justice, and accountability for those who have been harmed or lost.
