Evening Prayer – 16 June 2018

The sun has set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow
A day of worship, meetings, fellowship, challenge, and prayer
We were reminded of our Baptismal vows today
Reminded as we were charged to do God’s work in the church
Reminded as we elected new leadership
Challenged by the word from the Prophets
Challenged to stand for Moral Revival in this land
Challenged to stand with The Poor People’s Campaign
Reminded that we as the Church have a sacred calling
To do Justice
To love Kindness & Mercy
To walk Humbly with God
As we seek to discern your call for the Presbyterian Church (USA)
May your Spirit guide us
May your Spirit strengthen us
May your Spirit encourage us
To be the voice of the Prophet in this world
To speak on behalf of the voiceless
To speak on behalf of the Immigrants
To speak on behalf of people of color
To speak on behalf of the marginalized
To speak on behalf of the LGBTQ community
Not only will we speak
We must empower
And may we do all in your spirit of Love and Justice
As we do so, hear this humble prayer
Dona Nobis Pacem
Grant Us Peace
A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
