Prayer for Religious Freedom
Almighty and good God, Father of all Creation, we thank you for placing deep within us the Divine attribute of freedom and giving us a longing for it in our daily lives.
In history the founders of our great nation enshrined religious freedom as our highest liberty.
Inspire in us the gifts of wisdom and courage by which we may defend our liberty always, so that our children and our children’s children may be ever free to walk by the light of your Truth. Amen
Bishop William Callahan
Diocese of La Crosse
