Question: What prayer can be said for victims of disasters like Hurricane Katrina?
Answer: The following prayer for the victims of Hurricane Katrina comes from MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger.
In this time of darkness, let us serve as the light
That brings comfort and strength, hope and redemption.
It is our hands that move stones
And our hearts that move mountains
Sowing the seeds
Of unbroken tomorrows.
If you offer your compassion to the hungry
And satisfy the famished creature
Then shall your light
Shine in darkness
And your gloom
Shall be like noonday
Isaiah 58:10
