100 Days of Prayer (s19): Days 57-63




Begin with the prayer below, then go to the prayer for the day.






God of wisdom and mercy, grant us patience to listen; compassion to be open to other views and opinions; generosity to forgive and grace to change. As you taught us to love our dear neighbor, we pray that you give us strength to be healing instruments of unity and reconciliation.


Day 57: Sunday, March 17

Today I pray for my sisters and brothers who have been abducted and trafficked for labor and other purposes. Through awareness, compassion and action, let us put an end to trafficking in this generation.


Day 58: Monday, March 18

God of wisdom, guide my decision making to support sustainability that meets the needs of today without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same.


Day 59: Tuesday, March 19

ST. JOSEPH’S DAY - In the manner of St. Joseph, lead me to quietly serve the worldwide family we all share.


Day 60: Wednesday, March 20

God of creation, thank You for the voluntary actions of manufacturers to phase out grease-proofing materials and PFAs in food packaging. Extend the trend to make all packaging safe and minimal to protect people and our environment.


Day 61: Thursday, March 21

Today I pray for compassionate decision making as government budgets are formed. May the choices of how our collective money is spent be effective and benefit the common good without interference from special interests.


Day 62: Friday, March 22

God of peace, halt the actions of those propelling war in Gaza and Ukraine. May peace be rapidly achieved with reconciliation and restoration to follow it.


Day 63: Saturday, March 23

Today I pray for U.S. politicians to stop using the crisis at the southern border as a wedge issue rather than striving toward compassionate solutions. I pray for an end to depictions of migrants as evil or criminal, and the start of effective policy.
