Gracious and Loving God, in thankfulness and praise we gather our prayers with all the prayers of the faithful on this day. We give thanks for the gift of creation, for our life and for our faith and in praise we thank you for the spiritual journey we share with one another.
God, guide us on our way, and help us to remember Jesus’ prayer that “all may be one” and lead us forward so that the way we live our lives can help to make unity in the faith a reality. Grant that we might step out in faith with tolerance, patience and a willingness to see the face of Christ in each person that we meet.
God of Compassion, be with all who are hurting today. Make your comforting presence known to all in need of your power and grace. Enfold the grieving in your love, give strength to those who are ill or recovering from surgery, and give faith to those who wander in the wilderness of their searching, yearning, spirits.
Grant us your peace, O God, and send us out to live in the unity of the Holy Spirit, which proclaims with one voice the Love revealed in Jesus, who taught us to pray together saying…

I've spoken with my friend. He's not ready to talk yet, but he's alive and kicking.
Thanks to you all for the support and prayers last night!
You are an awesome group of people!
Please pray for my friend Amy to find the perfect house in her price range. Having her own place and garden again will be a crucial part of completing her healing from a rotten marriage.
And it would really be great if it happened in the next month before her daughter (my goddaughter) leaves the state to spend the summer with her dad. That way Claire can be part of the selection process, and know where she is going to live and which middle school she will begin in the fall.
Thanks!
