Gracious God: At your Epiphany you called those outside the circle of family, outside the people of Israel, and gathered them in to make yourself known. Help us to be aware of all those who are outside, looking in...into our lives as individual people of faith and into our congregations. Help us be an inviting, welcoming presence to them -- and, more importantly, give us the grace to see and welcome the gifts that each of them brings to our lives and communities of faith. We pray this in the name of Jesus Christ, the One For Others. Amen.--artwork from the Kennebec Valley Art Association exhibit, "Outside Looking In: Another Look"
