Pray for courage for diaspora communities sharing their stories

Reflection

Standing before official hearings to give testimony requires immense resolve, especially when individuals face threats or quiet coercion designed to silence them. When newcomer and cultural communities participate in democratic proceedings, their willingness to speak openly ensures that truth comes to light. Ask God to grant steadfast confidence to those coming forward. Pray for protective care over their families, wise counsel from trusted supporters, and discerning ears for officials receiving their evidence.
