Lord, today we pray for the family and friends of International Justice Mission investigator and human rights lawyer Willie Kimani. Not only have his loved ones been grieving his murder, but they are now facing the trial of the five alleged perpetrators. As you know, Kimani’s family is not the only family going through this literal and emotional trial, but so are the families of the friends killed with him: Joseph Muiruri and Josephat Mwenda. Lord, please bring comfort, peace and hope to all these grieving loved ones. Lord, it is also our fervent prayer that justice be done during this trial. We want truth to come out, your name to be glorified, and justice to be meted. Lord, please be with the IJM legal team that is representing these families. Protect them on every level. Guard their hearts and their minds in Christ Jesus. May their talents shine for you. May they be remarkably effective. May the judge see clearly. May people come to know you through this entire process. And, Lord, thank you for welcoming your beloved Kimani, Muiruri and Mwenda with open arms and special rewards. We are so thankful a beautiful eternity awaits all your children, where a glorious reunion will occur in the midst of our worship of you. Amen!
