Renew our vision of a world of accomplishment by guiding us to more valiant endeavors.
Fulfill us with a sense of accomplishment as we continue to serve you. Amen.
As we partake of the wine placed here, fill us with a renewed life dedicated to the lifestyle Jesus taught us.
We want to be satisfied with our lives. We come to be fed with food from God.
Do you understand: Our anger? Our greed? Our jealousies?
accept these gifts that you also accept a commitment from this congregation to offer them without anger or resentment
The church is more than the sum of its worldly parts.
When we have angry feelings, help us to bring to you. When we are frustrated as the result of seeming futile struggles to get ahead in our lives, help us to confess those to you.
We bring all of our troubles and conflicts before our Lord.
