6 June 2024 marks the 80th anniversary of D-Day. This prayer commemorates the Normandy Landings, the largest seaborne invasion in history.
God our refuge and strength,
as we remember those
who faced danger and death in Normandy,
eighty years ago,
grant us courage to pursue what is right,
the will to work with others,
and strength to overcome tyranny and oppression,
through Jesus Christ,
to whom belong dominion and glory,
now and for ever.
Amen.
