Prayer 2343: On the second anniversary of our ordination


Almighty One,
we praise You and bless You,
our hearts full with the knowledge
of all You have done for us,
and all that You are doing in us.

May we make ourselves instruments of your grace
and coworkers toward building the peace
You call us to establish for all.

Give us the compassion to comfort the afflicted,
the wisdom to inspire empathy in the comfortable,
until all live in safety, justice, and ease.

We remember your mercy and reconciliation
as you walked and healed among us, Blessed Jesus:
may we imitate You in all we do.

Grant us your blessing, O God,
and anoint us with your Holy Spirit
as we seek to deepen our wisdom and kindness.
Extend the awning of your mercy, Lord Christ,
over all who offer you their thanks or their needs.

Amen.
