Light of Light, Blessed Lord,
we gather in your courts
to worship and praise you today.
May we offer You, O God,
all that we have and are,
living in love, hope, and faithfulness
with You and each other.
May we reflect your light of wisdom and healing into the world,
tending to the flame of faith
that calls us to your table.
May we join hands with each other
in your great heavenly feast, O God,
and rejoice and give thanks.
May we lift each other up in prayer,
united as your children,
healed and empowered by your Spirit of Love.
With hands and hearts joined,
may we remember our common home in you, Lord Christ,
as we ask your blessing upon these beloveds.
Amen.
