May the God of hope fill you

with all joy and peace as you trust in him,

so that you may overflow with hope

by the power of the Holy Spirit

Romans 15:13

 

Gracious God,

you have called us

to be the Church of Jesus Christ.

Keep us one in faith and service;

breaking bread together

and telling the good news to the world;

that all may believe you are love,

turn to your ways, and live to your glory;

through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.
