God of justice and peace,
We pray for the family and friends of Anthony Lamar Smith. Send them your love and care. Empower them to work for justice, even in the midst of their deep grief. Protect protestors and let their appeals to be heard. Help us as the church to understand what you need us to do to help bring about a world of peace and justice where all can expect to be treated fairly. Protect the communities that need protection this day, and inspire leaders to see the larger picture. Help us know what the world needs from us, your people, and most of all, grant your peace that passes all understanding to those grieving Anthony’s loss. Lord in your mercy, Hear our prayer. Idea from Rev. Korla Masters, Edited by Rev. Katya Ouchakof Now you know what to pray. No excuses for not knowing.

I don't know Anthony Lamar personally and haven't heard anything about him yet, but I felt the sincerity and the desire to help people have a special connection with God. I felt the pureness, and for that I want to thank you. I admit that I am one of the many people who do not have a special connection with God because of my shortcomings. Thank you for the prayers you've been sending for the person. I am sure that it's a huge help!
