Greetings to all!
This week's tragedy in West Virginia makes us mindful of the many
persons who do dangerous work for our security or comfort. Consider
the following prayer for all those whose work is particularly dangerous.
God of earth and air, height and depth: we pray for those who work in
danger above, below, or on the earth. Give them caution and a concern
for one another, so that in safety they may do what must be done, under
your watchful love, in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
