Prayer after Murrysville

Please email comments to letters@livingchurch.org.

From the Diocese of Pittsburgh

Almighty God, most merciful, Father, whose son Jesus was attacked and wounded: comfort and heal your wounded children in Murrysville.

Surround their families with your care, and stir up in us so strong a spirit of compassion, that we may persevere with them in prayer and minister to them in steadfast love.

We ask this in the name of Christ Crucified and Risen, in whose Life we find our own. Amen.

The Rt. Rev. Dorsey McConnell
Bishop, Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh
