Gracious God, we pray especially this morning for parents who are under financial pressure and are concerned over the welfare of their children. We give thanks for the tireless work of Foodbanks, and other agencies, who have continued to ensure people are fed during these difficult times. As a society, may we ensure the protection of the most vulnerable in our communities, especially children and young people. We place all families into Your safekeeping and may each home feel the presence of Your love, Amen.
