As part of our
liturgy at Annual Council 2015, each delegation wrote a prayer for their
parish. We are sharing these prayers each week in the eNews so that we
all can support one another in the upcoming year.
Good Shepherd, McKenney
Gracious God, you
have blessed our parish all these years. We ask your continued blessing
and for your guidance in the coming year as we reach out and invite
others, especially the young people around us, to join in worship each
week and to become a part of our Christian community. We ask this
through the Lord Jesus Christ who lives and reigns with you and the Holy
Spirit. Amen.
St. Thomas', Chesapeake
O God, who
wonderfully created and yet more graciously gives care humanity over
your creation: grant St. Thomas Episcopal Church the power to endeavor
to strengthen our stewardship of your church; so that we may improve our
ministries to those who are new among us, in need, and the young, all
of this we ask in the name of your Son, our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
