INVOCATION
Loving God,
Come to us we pray.
Clear our vision,
clarify our thinking,
open our hearts,
connect our soul
to the Wisdom of your Spirit
so that we hear, absorb, understand and act
in harmony as one family in you.
Come to us now O Christ,
Refresh in us today a new vision.
We long to grow in Your way of living and being.
Instil in us Your Way where we welcome diversity,
listen respectfully, act for justice determinedly,
Together we glimpse the harmony found in the whole body of Christ,
inter-culturally enriched and inter-generationally blessed,
where all life experiences open us to beauty and belonging. Amen
We are very grateful to Rev Anne for graciously sharing this resource.
