O Sheltering God, we are your children: may we draw near to You to receive your blessing and benediction. Let us examine all our actions, that they may not cause any of your beloved children to stumble or lose their way. We cast ourselves upon your arms of forgiveness, Blessed Savior, and humbly as pardon for all our faults.
May we always remember that we proclaim ourselves your people, and we are the face of Christ in the world. Give us the open-heartedness of children, and let us always seek to learn and be guided by your Holy Spirit. Give us the wisdom of children, and let us always act out of love and generosity of spirit. May we love and treasure each other in Your Name, O God: Creator, Sustainer, and Redeemer.
Have mercy upon us as we walk our pilgrim path, O God, and hear the prayers of your people as we remember the needs of our brothers and sisters, and all our fellow-creatures.
Amen.
