A Prayer for the families and friends of the Navy Seals who lost their lives

God of love and justice, we pray for all the families who have lost their sons due to the tragedy of war and violence. We pray for their fellow friends and soldiers who are gripped with anger and fear. In all of their grief, grant them your peace and your unending love. Help them to feel the extended body of Christ praying for them every moment of every day. When they are in the depths of their despair, help them to know they are not alone. We join in unity as the family of Christ as we pray this in your Son's name. Amen.
