Lord God, use our lives to touch the world with love. Stir us, by your Spirit, to be neighbor to those in need, serving them with willing hearts. Amen.
O God, your ears are open always to the prayers of your servants. Open our hearts and minds to you, that we may live in harmony with your will and receive the gifts of your spirit. Amen.
Holy God, through your Son you have called us to live faithfully and act courageously. Keep us steadfast in your covenant of grace, and teach us the wisdom that comes only through Jesus Christ. Amen.
