Loving God, Father of us all, we thank You for giving us another day.



In the ebb and flow of American politics, the Nation now enters the final months of a quadrennial campaign for the highest office in our

Republic.



Send Your spirit among Your people, that during this stretch the best of ourselves as American citizens might emerge, and the darker angels

of our community be discouraged, even silenced by a spirit of good will, patience, and intelligent discernment. Hear Your people, as we put our trust in You.



Continue to bless those who labor to attend to the sick among our citizens, and those also who strive to find effective treatments and vaccines. Keep us all safe, in Your divine mercy.



May all that is done be for Your greater honor and glory. Amen.
