Just 4 More Stops for Equality Ride

[kara speltz]

We're nearing the first training of our 2010 Equality Riders and I've noted that we've had an incredible increase in our active membership on the forums. I suspect many who have joined recently are friends of our young Equality Riders. So let me just say welcome to all of you and I hope you'll join us in our discussions here on the forums.

I'm excited about the upcoming ER and look forward to hearing the amazing stories that I know will come out of this.

God bless you Riders!

Keep them in your prayers

Just spoke with the folks on the bus and they arrived in Phonenixville last night. Please keep them in prayer.

A Prayer for the Equality Riders

Spirit of the living God, who longs to gather all God's children together, sustain our passion for welcoming and loving all people, especially those who are marginalized and excluded. We particularly ask you to be with our Equality Riders as they travel this land to bring the truth of love to those who would deny us.

We know you by many names and we acknowledge the reality that following your will, may at times, involve suffering and struggle. Give us strength and comfort us as we strive to do your will, remind us always that we are not alone or far from your care. Empower us to persist in your way of love, justice and peace. We pray this in your many names. Amen.
