This traveling exhibition of near life-sized photographs of the migrants is printed on aluminum sheets: so that the viewer can see each one as a fellow human being. We have no idea where they might be at this time, or even if they are still alive. Our hearts are with them. 1

6 PSALM 82 God arises in the council of heaven and gives judgment in the midst of the gods: How long will you judge unjustly, and show favor to the wicked? Save the weak and the orphan; defend the humble and needy; Rescue the weak and the poor; deliver them from the power of the wicked. They do not know, neither do they understand; they go about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. Now I say to you, You are gods, and all of you children of the Most High; Nevertheless, you shall die like mortals, and fall like any leader. Arise, O God, and rule the earth, for you shall take all nations for your own. TODAY S MUSIC 8:00 a.m. Service PRELUDE IV. Innig ( ) COMMUNION VI. Adagio POSTLUDE V.
