Merciful God, love and fidelity surround you. In confidence we pray: O God, receive our prayer. 

Help us to share our gifts and to show the face of Christ to those who seek our help.  

     O God, receive our prayer. 

Open our eyes and hearts to the beauty and mystery of the natural world.  

     O God, receive our prayer. 

Raise to new life all those who have died with their heart fixed on you.  

     O God, receive our prayer. 

Our Father . . . 

May God bless us with peace and inspire us to tell of all the wonderful works in our lives, through Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
