Be joyful in hope, patient in pain, faithful in prayer. (Rom. 12:12)
I hope one day there would be no more homelessness.
I hope one day we could find appropriate housing for everyone we meet.
I hope one day that everyone was connected to community.
I hope one day for an end to addiction.
I hope one day for a cure for all the diseases we are faced with each day.
I hope one day for an end to any unnecessary deaths.
I hope one day for an end to poverty.
I hope one day for an end to violence and war.
I hope one day for an end to division.
I hope one day for an end to exclusion.
I hope one day for an end to hunger and thirst.
I hope one day there would be no need for jails/prisons.
I hope one day for an end to abuse.
I hope one day for an end to bullying.
I hope one day we could all treat each other as equals.
I hope one day for an end to the exploitation of the earth.
I hope one day for true justice and reconciliation for everyone and everything.
I hope one day that I’ll need a new line of work because there was no more need for shelters.
I hope one day everything will be made right once and for all.

God of all hope,
Give me the strength and courage to hope,
Even in those times when my hope
seems entirely impossible,
entirely irrational.
In the name of pure hope I pray,
Amen
