Father, Your own Son was a prisoner.

Condemned, he died for us.

Victorious, He returned to bring us the gift of

life everlasting.  

Comfort us now in our longing for the return of the

Prisoners Of War and those Missing In Action.

Help Us Father;

Inspire us to remove the obstacles.

Give courage to those who know the truth to speak out.

Grant wisdom to the negotiators,

and compassion to the jailors.

Inspire the media to speak out as loudly

as they have in the past.

Protect those who seek in secret

and help them to succeed.

Show us the tools to do Your will.

Guard and bless those in captivity, their families,

and those who work for their release.

Let them come home soon.

Thank you Father.

Amen.
