This horror, for me, is not just another mass-shooting, as tragic as each of them is (but they are exceedingly rare in Germany, since people do not routinely own guns). The mass-shooting in Hanau went straight to my heart because this city is my home-town. As I tried to settle into prayer, struggling to anchor my prayer \u2013 with a text, an image, a psalm, a space of silence, the Divine Office, anything that would hold my heart and body still before God, I remembered that I had written a text for just such an occasion some years back. It took me a while to find it again, but here it is, tweaked for this morning:<\/p>\n<p>Eternal, All-Compassionate God:<br \/>\nYou are our help in ages past,<br \/>\nour hope for years to come,<br \/>\nour shelter from the stormy blast,<br \/>\nand our eternal home.<br \/>\nWe lift our hearts and voices in lament to you this day<br \/>\nas we grieve the violence, the terror, and the loss of life in Hanau, Germany.<br \/>\nHave mercy, O God, have mercy.<br \/>\nWe entrust to your infinite compassion all those who have died.<br \/>\nMay they rest in your eternal peace.<br \/>\nWe pray for those who are fighting for their lives, and for those who are injured in body, mind, and soul.<br \/>\nGrant them easing of their pain and healing.<br \/>\nWe pray for this city and for its inhabitants, in shock.<br \/>\nWe pray for those tasked with responding to this catastrophe.<br \/>\nGive them steadfastness and wisdom.<br \/>\nAnd, as you commanded us to do, we pray for our enemies.<br \/>\nLet them not be lost in violence and hatred.<br \/>\nTo all of us, grant deep compassion for all that exists, and an abiding longing for your peace.<br \/>\nLord, send out your Spirit<br \/>\nAnd renew the face of our marred and grieving world.<br \/>\nAmen.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-50937\" src=\"https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/110973200_germany_hanau_shooting_mapv3_640-nc.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"463\" srcset=\"https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/110973200_germany_hanau_shooting_mapv3_640-nc.png 640w, https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/110973200_germany_hanau_shooting_mapv3_640-nc-300x217.png 300w, https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/110973200_germany_hanau_shooting_mapv3_640-nc-553x400.png 553w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This was my question today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":50937,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[3116],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-50933","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-new-ws"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How do I pray \u2013 when my hometown has become the site of a mass-shooting?
