A prayer that we may give welcome to others
Dear Lord, we come to you in prayer, seeking your guidance to help us to continue to make our churches places of welcome and acceptance.
We know so many people of all ages are lonely and long to belong.
We want to build church families of all ages, who worship together with joy.
We need always to put prayer at the heart of all our planning and action.
Help us to sing a new song that tells of your love, by always listening and learning to become receptive to new ideas that translate into loving action in our neighbourhoods. Amen.
