A Prayer For The Missing

-Our Father in Heaven.
Mary and Joseph once searched when Jesus
disappeared when He was twelve.
Both Joseph and Mary would not give up
until He was found.

-From this, You know the pain of having someone missing,
and the joy of finding them,
as they found Your Son.

-Help those who are searching now,
to find the answers to their questions,
and an end to their searching.

-Inspire people to be vigilant,
so that their eyes and ears
may see and hear news that will bring hope.

-Comfort those who feel lonely and sad
because the one they love has vanished.
Be with them in the storm
and guide them in their efforts.

We ask this through Jesus Christ.

Amen
