09.07.17 – Peace in the Community

PEACE CARD FOR SEPTEMBER 7

PEACE IN THE COMMUNITY

Question: Read Micah 6:8. What does “do justice” mean and how can we live that out?

Action: Think about things that aren’t fair or just in your community, such as unequal wages, access to community parks and swimming pools, or representation on community boards. As a family, write a letter to your leaders (mayor or city or county council members) expressing these concerns and ways to address them. Start “doing justice” to make a difference in your community.

Prayer: God of injustice, we notice when things aren’t fair. Give us the confidence to speak up and to be your hands and feet to make our world just for all. Amen.

Peace be with you and your family.
