Author of Peace, As we approach Passover we remember the exodus and we do not forget the hardships that led to that terrifying escape. Bless those in this building who work daily to address the hardships faced by Alaskans in the here and now. Passover Prayer Long ago, at this season, on such a day as this, a people - our people - set out on a journey. All but crushed by their enslavement, they yet recalled the far-off memory of a happier past. And heard the voice of their ancestral God, bidding them summon up the courage to be free. Boldly, they went forth from Egypt, crossed the Sea, and headed through the desert for the Promised Land. What they experienced, they remembered, and told their children, and they to theirs. 2017-04-06 Senate Journal Page 0772 From generation to generation, the story was retold, and this Passover we are here to tell it yet again. Thus we too remember what it means to be a slave. And so we pray for all who are still fettered, still denied their human rights. Let all God's children sit at His table, drink the wine of deliverance, and eat the bread of freedom: freedom from bondage and freedom from oppression, freedom from hunger and freedom from want, freedom from hatred and freedom from fear, freedom to think and freedom to speak, freedom to learn and freedom to love, freedom to hope and freedom to rejoice; A homeland for all who wander, soon in our days, Amen.
