A prayer from the President and Vice-President of the Methodist Conference
for unknown people who have died in a lorry
for unknown suffering to family and friends
we pray with heartbreak and sorrow
because
we know this should never happen
we know that behind the headlines there is an unheard story of despair
we know that we have overlooked things we should have seen
we know that as individuals and a society we need to change
for God's sake
bring us to our knees in contrition
and to our feet with outrage
Amen
