Dear God, we enter into a month were we celebrate our history. Indeed you have been the constant reality throughout our time and place. We enjoyed the blessedness of Mother Africa, we survived the horrors of the Middle Passage and slavery, You empowered us to pursue our freedom, and you placed spiritual leadership along the way to guide our paths. O God, how wonderful is your name in all the earth. We thank you for the legacy of faith that engulfs us. We pray that our faith will not shrink and that our testimony will be true; that You, O God, have been our anchor in a weary land. You have been our strong tower and shield. We thank You for the sainted leaders who yielded their spirits to Your command. We pray that You will work in us as You worked in them so that our feet follow the straight and narrow pathway of our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
