An Ecumenical Response...

BUGB, Church of Scotland, Methodist Church and URC, Joint Public Issues Team, offer us this

From which I have copied the following prayer...

 

God of every nation and people,

At this historic moment we pray for all who are affected by the decision that we have made.

Whatever differences this has revealed within our own society,

may they not eclipse what we have in common.

Where the narratives of political debate have caused harm and division

help us to reclaim the true values of our shared humanity.

Where exaggeration and distortion have generated suspicion and fear

may truth and honesty restore hope and goodness.

We pray for all the nations of Europe

that you will help us to find ways of living and working together

to pursue the mercy and justice that you require.

                We recommit ourselves – together – to the values of your eternal Kingdom

                and pray that along with all people

                we might help your world become more as you intended.

AMEN
