Sojourner Truth, Prophetic Witness

Sojourner Truth

Sojourner Truth, from the Randall Studio, c. 1870. From Wikipedia.

Almighty God, who hast made thy Church to be one body with  many members and many gifts: we thank thee for the witness of thy daughter, Sojourner Truth, and for her courage to preach the truth of thy liberating love in the face of great injustice. Grant that we, like her, may use our time, talents, and energy to proclaim the coming of thy Kingdom, which is good news to the poor, and in which all the oppressed shall be made free; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
