Our Prayers are with the Hokies of Virginia Tech
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Psalm 23 (King James Version)
(In many ways this is 9/11 deja vu)….
Prayer for Virginia Tech:
Mercy of God deliver us.
Love of Christ heal us.
Spirit of God strengthen us.
Lord, have mercy on all those hurt by the massacre in Virginia — the victims, the injured, the traumatized, the grieving, the rescuers, and the healers.
Prince of Peace, grant through your holy Cross where you suffer with all humanity, that we may rise up to new life with you, to be instruments of your Peace.
Through Christ our Lord, and the intercession of your servant, Fr. Mychal Judge, “the Saint of 9/11”. Amen.
