St. James Cathedral prays for the Jewish community of Seattle and especially for the victims of the shootings on Friday, July 28, and for their families and friends.

O Merciful God, who answerest the poor,
          Answer us.
O Merciful God, who answerest the lowly in spirit,
          Answer us.
O Merciful God, who answerest the broken of heart,
          Answer us.
O Merciful God,
          Answer us.
O Merciful God,
          Have compassion.
O Merciful God,
          Redeem.
O Merciful God,
          Save.
O Merciful God, have pity upon us,
          Now,
          Speedily,
          And at a near time.
