Prayer for Turkey & Syria
Many of us may be feeling helpless watching and listening to the news following the earthquake that has affected Turkey and Syria. We invite you to pray:
We pray for the people of Central Turkey and North West Syria, whose lives have been devastated by the earthquake.
Be present, O Lord, our Good Shepherd, to bring comfort, relief, shelter and human kindness. Shield the people who suffer, console those who are bereaved, prosper the provision of relief, strengthen the work of emergency teams, and shine your light and hope in the midst of despair.
We pray this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen
