 So we're going to have a few moments of silence, and I want to invite you to lift these concerns up before the Lord, and then I'll pray on behalf of us all. Let us pray. Gracious and almighty Father, as we gather together to worship you, we pray that you would grant us peace. Remind us that it is for peace that you sent your Son, Jesus Christ, to us, for it is he who gave us the truth and the truth that sets us free.
