15.01.2022 Prayer for NAIDOC Week 2020: Loving Creator God, We rejoice in the beauty of this ancient land and her waters. We marvel at the awesome way they have been formed.... We give thanks for her First Nations Peoples, their stories of creation sung by countless Ancestors. It is right, Loving Mystery that we name the dispossession, violence and bloodshed, which First Peoples endured at the hands of Second Peoples. We ask your forgiveness, and their forgiveness, on behalf of our forebears. We pray for your healing of this land and her Peoples. We pray that love will make a new way, a harmony way, the way of Jesus. Holy God, today we are grateful, and we celebrate this nation’s true history, beginning long before time. The First People of this ancient land who gave them birth, who gives them life Mother Earth. We honour them and share their joy. You, Wisdom, call us body, call us one, To walk together, people from many lands, under this same golden sun, together First Nations Peoples and all of us who have since come. Together there is a new song to be sung, as old as time. Hear the yidaki, hear the bilma, the Ancestors call. Wisdom, help us to listen, to follow, to learn, to grow. In the name of Christ, we pray. Amen. [Yidaki is the Yolu word for digeridoo as bilma is for clap stick] [Stu McMillan, National Consultant Covenanting -- Assembly Resourcing Unit]
