We pray for the families, communities, and all those who were affected by the legacy of the residential schools. May they find comfort and strength.
We ask for forgiveness for the wrongs that were done, and we pray for the courage to acknowledge the harm that was inflicted. Help us to listen to the stories of those who were hurt and to take steps towards healing and reconciliation.
We pray for the leaders and decision-makers in our society, that they may have wisdom and humility to seek justice and reconciliation. May they work towards building a society where all are valued and respected, and where the wounds of the past can be healed.
We ask for your blessings on this journey of reconciliation, that we may learn to live together in peace and harmony. May we be guided by your love and grace, and may we work towards a brighter future for all.
