Prayer 1628: Opening Day of EYE17

Presiding Bishop Michael Curry preaches at the Opening Eucharist
of the Episcopal Youth Even 2017, held in Edmond, OK.

Blessed are You, O God of All Creation!
Let us join our voices in one song of praise and thanksgiving!

Holy Spirit, You give life to all that grows:
let our hearts be drawn to You on the Path to Peace.

Unite us with each other with one pupose:
to do justice, and love mercy,
and walk humbly beside You always.

Preserve us from sin, we humbly pray,
and help to reconcile and forgive as we hope to be forgiven.

Grant your peace to all who call upon You, Lord Christ,
and especially on those for whom we pray.

Amen.
