For the Homeless and those who Care for them

God of compassion,

your love for humanity was revealed in Jesus,
whose earthly life began in the poverty of a stable
and ended in the pain and isolation of the cross:

we hold before you those who are homeless and
cold especially in this bitter weather.

Draw near and comfort them in spirit
and bless those who work to provide them with shelter,
food and friendship.

We ask this in Jesus' name.

Amen.
-a prayer from the Church of England

    1. It is so heartbreaking Wanda. I am thankful for the two Christian homeless shelters in our downtown KC area. They refused no one when the temps went below zero this week.
