Created in the summer of 2020, www.MovementPrayers.com is "A collaborative, open access collection of prayers for the people."


In the months following the murder of George Floyd, communities across the U.S. and far beyond witnessed a mass uprising against racial injustice. While roots for this project predate those summer months, it was created in recognition of the critical needs of that wake—with hopes of nurturing its transformative possibility.


Below provides a further description and snapshot of the project:


Activism is sacred work; it’s also hard, tiring work. Spiritual grounding makes our commitments to social activism more sustainable. This project exists to provide free, accessible resources for movement chaplains, social healing efforts, and anyone seeking a spiritual anchor for social change. All prayers featured on this website are available for free use and distribution at demonstrations, acts of civil disobedience, as well as for use in vigils, worship services, and liturgies. While these prayers are commonly guided by a vision for transformative social change, theological diversity and ideological tension is both inevitable and is encouraged.
