Make a personal commitment to do a work of justice for the poor this week. Decide together on a purpose for your loose change. Share commitments publicly with your group; then pray Psalm 145.
LEADER: Happy those who keep faith, secure justice for the oppressed, and give food to the hungry.
ALL: The Holy One sets captives free, gives sight to the blind, and raises up those who are bowed down.
LEADER: The Holy One protects strangers; the fatherless and the widow God sustains —
ALL: But the wicked God thwarts.
