Prayer

Creator God, you dwell in relationship with the Son and Holy Spirit. Our deepest call is to be in relationship with you and all your creation. We pray for our families, those who are close, and those who are distant. Heal our divisions and differences and enable us to focus on our similarities. Through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
