In this prayer, the King presents himself before God as one who recognizes the migration history of his ancestors in Egypt and in the desert, his own identity, and God&#8217;s love for migrants, which he expresses: \u00abWe are migrants before you and pilgrims like all our ancestors!\u00bb. Being a migrant, in David&#8217;s perspective, is not just the socio-political status of the chosen people, but a fundamental part of its identity.Thus, he refers to migration and pilgrimage as theological categories, evoking God&#8217;s call, \u00abThe land is mine; with me you are but aliens and tenants\u00bb (Lev 25:23). David&#8217;s prayer makes us reflect on the condition of human existence as a passage: no one has a fixed abode in the earth. Consequently, if one visits his\/her historical memory, he\/she will certainly find in his\/her genealogical line an experience of migration.To the point, we can say that this prayer also ex- presses an appeal for solidarity with migrants, since migration is an inherent dynamic of human life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The event will be streamed on the channel:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/directenglish.uisg.link\">http:\/\/directenglish.uisg.link<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">for more information contact <a href=\"info@simieducation.org\">info@simieducation.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 3\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>PROGRAM<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 3\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>20 SEPTEMBER<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>OPENING SESSION<\/p>\n<p>(12:00-12:45 CET)<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Welcoming remarks and opening prayer<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>H.E.
