The People Pray
Oh God, source of love and life, be with us in our time of worship
as we seek to learn to walk in the ways of your Son.
Help us to see each person here today and those who surround our lives as people worthy of our invitation to come and see.
Teach us the joy of inviting others
to experience your power and presence.
May our every word and deed make known the love you hold for each and every person. Amen.
