May we all join together in prayer today.  
 As more and more events unfold, may we all turn to the 

Lord for strength to see us through.
 
  
 
 We ask you to be with the grieving families that have lost loved ones in
 this senseless tragedy.
 There are not adequate words of comfort or sympathy.
 Our hearts go out to them.  
 Our tears fall for them.
 Our prayers need to continue to go out in their behalf.
 For the children whose parents will not come home today.
 For the parents who will loose children today and later as a result of
 today's events.
 For the trauma that millions are facing, who may not have the faith to
 see them through this.
 
 
 
 Lord, please be with the many victims who are suffering.
 Guide the hands that try to rescue them.
 Guide the physicians that attend them.
 Ease their pain and suffering
 
 
 
 We ask you to be with the leaders of our country.
 Decisions they make this day will effect our lives and the 

way we live for many years to come.
 
 
 
 Please be with the person reading this and help them through this day
 and the ones to follow.
 May we remember that you are in control.
 
 
 
 We pray this in Jesus' name,
 Amen
