We Respond in Prayer

Prayers of Thanksgiving and Intercession

Please stand when offering a prayer, so others will know you have the floor.

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.

Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,

for thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever.

Amen.

Closing Prayer

Dear God,

Please bless our mothers and our fathers,

Our teachers and healers,

Our friends and lovers,

Our children and theirs.

Please bless our countries and every country,

And forgive us our violence and pain.

We surrender the world to you.

Amen
