 God, as we make our way toward another election year, I invite all of you to pray, much like Pastor Maggie at age 13. We create space to include you within our prayers, God, because that's who we're communicating with. And we ask that you would be present in more than just our prayers, but in our daily actions, in the ways that we live out our faith, in the ways that we simply live here on earth. May we be good neighbors to each other.
