Lord, may we always be merciful in action,
kind in heart and humber in mind.
May we always be ready to forgive
as freely as God has forgiven us.
And, above all else, may we pray without ceasing,
love out neighbor
and never forget to be thankful
for what Christ has done for us.
Amen
The Power of Prayer Prayer is at the heart of worship, shaped by the Word of God in Scripture and by the life of the community of faith. In prayer, we respond to God in many ways:
. In ADORATION, we praise God for who God is.
. In THANKSGIVING, we express gratitude for what God has done.
. In CONFESSION, we acknowledge repentance for what we have done or left undone.
. In SUPPLICATION, we plead for ourselves and the gathered community.
. In INTERCESSION, we plead for others, on behalf of others and for the whole world.
. In SELF-DEDICATION, we offer ourselves to the purpose and glory of God.
