Our Creator, Friend and Shield, 

Loving Presence, 

Eternal Teacher, 

As the beginning of winter approaches, 

May we sustain, within our souls,

The warmth of care and concern

To dispel the cold of indifference that prevents us

From reaching out to our neighbors in need,

So that we will serve as Your hands and 

engender hope in this world. 

Help us to spread the light of Your wisdom and insight

In the face of the darkness of misunderstanding and ignorance

So that we will overcome any obstacles

That might preclude us from becoming one people on earth,

Acknowledging our differences 

But recognizing that there is a touch of You inside every person

And infused throughout all creation. 

Every night and every morning,

May we be united within Your Oneness 

As we continue to seek truth and establish justice and peace.
