CONGREGATIONAL PRAYER
Our Glorious Creator, Author of salvation, we praise your name and give you thanks for the days of our life, for the freedom we have to choose, for the ability to be decisive and, most of all, for second chances. We confess the fragility of our egos. And dearest Lord, we confess to, sometimes, feeling unappreciated especially when someone else’s work is recognized before ours. Help us never feel discounted, by attentions paid to any who seek to glorify your name. All our efforts, as followers of Jesus, are made in your honor. Help us take our faith off the back burner and see clearly all of the chances you set before us to be gratified in our work. In the name of the Christ we pray. Amen.
UNISON OFFERTORY PRAYER
Gracious God, our hearts are full as we ponder the depth of love you have shown us in the life of Jesus. He opened our eyes and helped us to see your light shining in the darkness. He invited us to know you intimately, personally and to be aware of your presence in every moment of our lives. These offerings cannot fully express how grateful we are for all your blessings. However we pray that they will succeed in shining your light in dark places and bring comfort and healing to those in need. In the name of the Christ we pray. Amen.
