God of grace, Light of the way ahead, Source of love,
We come together to pray. We give deep thanks for your presence in our lives – individually, as a community, and in the bigger scheme of things.
We pray for your dawn to keep breaking, to keep surprising us, to keep blessing us.
Today we pray for our Households of Faith.
Today we pray for our children – all those who were part of today’s Christmas presentation, and many more who are part of our lives in so many ways. We pray for your special blessing upon ALL our children. Bless them and keep them in your embrace. Make your Advent face to shine upon them and give them so much joy!
God of grace, we praise you. We lift up our prayers to you. How will your dawn break into our lives today? How will your Light surprise us this week? We put our trust in you. We love you. AMEN.
