God, as a people and as individuals, we repent: We withhold compassion and we seek to remove another’s speck without first looking for the board in our own eyes. Forgive us. Forgive me. We declare as evil any and all words and acts designed to incite for the
purpose of destruction. Comfort the families of all who died or who will suffer trauma
as a result of the Capitol’s siege. We ask you, God, to heal our land; open our ears
and our hearts that we may listen to You and to each other. We ask for grace
to love and forgive. May Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

On Sunday, May 31, 2020, Steve Townsdin, on behalf of the White Station Shepherds, shared a powerful message about what our responses as Christians should be to matters of racial inequality and injustice in our country. May we all be people who first listen, then speak up, and ultimately learn to love all people because we are all children of God. You can view Steve's remarks by clicking the image to the left. A full transcript of the video is available here.
