Heavenly Father,
You created all people in your image and made them equal in your sight
We bring before you the plight of vulnerable and marginalised women in India.
We pray for healing where there is hurt, and your strength to enable perseverance
We thank you for the work of READ which raises awareness among women of their rights,
and partners with them to develop their potential as given by you.
We ask that these women will know the worth you have bestowed on them
and be given the opportunity to assert influence over their future.
Amen
