O God, our loving Creator and Giver of all good gifts, bless our parish, strengthen our faith and grant us the spirit of Christian stewardship so that we may give generously of our time, talent and treasure to the spreading of Your kingdom here in our church and throughout the world. This we ask through Jesus Christ, Your son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen All powerful and ever-living God, we do well always and everywhere to give you thanks. All things are of your making. All times and seasons obey you. You chose to create us in your own image, and set us over the whole world in all its wonder. You make us the stewards of creation, to praise you every day for your wisdom and power. May we imitate your Son, Jesus, in his life of service. May we be faithful stewards of all your gifts among the people of God. Amen. Lord God, You alone are the source of every good gift, of the vast array of the universe, and of the mystery of each human life. Everything we are and everything we have belongs to You and is your gift. Fill our minds with Your truth and our hearts with Your love. Bring us together as a community of faith, a parish family, a caring people. In the name and spirit of Jesus, help us to be good stewards of the gifts You entrust to us. Guide us as we go forth to serve as Your disciples, sharing freely of our time, our talent, and our material gifts, to glorify You, acknowledge Your abundant blessings, and care for each other as Jesus taught us. Amen. |
