A Prayer for Belonging

Liturgies for Parents with Kayla Craig

In honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we’ve invited Korean American author Tasha Jun to lend us her words this week. In this prayer for belonging, we are reminded that we are not outsiders to God, who divinely knit us together. Let us pray to the One who makes visible what is kept invisible that our children would feel seen and that their stories—and ours as parents—would reflect their heritage and the hope and survival of those who came before.

You can follow Tasha on Instagram at @TashaJunB and find where to grab a copy of her stunning book Tell Me the Dream Again here.

Kayla has a new book coming this September! Every Season Sacred is an invitation to ask big questions, embrace faithful rhythms, and experience God’s mysterious, loving presence together. You don’t have to have all the answers—and if we’re honest, many answers aren’t ours to have. This is the beauty of faith. To learn more and preorder your copy, visit kaylacraig.com/newbook.

You can check out Liturgies for Parents on Instagram for more prayers and encouragement and pick up your own copy of To Light Their Way wherever books are sold. For glimpses of Kayla’s experiences with parenting and faith, find her on Instagram at @kayla_craig.
