For the children and those that loved and cared for them…
For the children and those that tried to protect and defend them…
For the children and those that taught and nurtured them…
For the children whose lives were taken before they finished laughing, playing and growing …
And for the wounded children and adults left behind to mourn and heal…
We pray as individuals and as a world community across the miles that join us, from sea to stretching sea.
We weep with God and the whole universe as the angels carry the young spirits to rest long before their time.
We reach out to all affected by this tragedy and touch their cheeks and hands and say…we care too and share your pain this day. You are not alone.
For the children.
