Our God of many names,

I pray that you continue to hold us and comfort us in these dark times. I pray that we as your people will continue to stand up against the claws of empire. I pray that all the queer kiddos like me know they’re not wrong. Just unique beings of your image. May your love continue to spread community, sanctuary, and radical change.

Amen.
