Human Rights
"You have been created in the image of God."
— Genesis 1:27
Creator of humanity,
Today, Human Rights Day, we affirm that every person has an inalienable dignity, created in Your image.
Forgive us for all the times we trample on this dignity. For the injustices, discrimination, violence that so many people suffer.
Awaken in us respect for every human being. May we defend the rights of all, fight against injustice, recognize Your presence in everyone.
Amen.
