A Prayer for Affected Communities

Heavenly Father, we praise You for Your unwavering goodness, faithfulness, and sovereign power over every shaking earth, for Your love that holds us through every storm. In Jesus Christ's name, we urgently cry out for those struck by the very strong magnitude 5.1 earthquake 23 km northeast of Tateyama in Japan—the directly affected, families grieving lost loved ones or searching for the missing, the injured in medical care, scared and traumatized children, tireless rescue workers and first responders, medical teams healing the wounded, government leaders coordinating aid, and communities uniting in help. As You promise in Psalm 46:1, be our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Holy Spirit, bring comfort and hope rooted in Christ. In Jesus-Christ's name we pray. Amen!

You can join others in this prayer right now. As we lift up these communities together, we trust in God's faithfulness and care.
