WISE STEWARDS: LENTEN PRAYERS 2017

Day 34 – Saturday
Acts 6:1-7

     God our Redeemer, we rejoice that You have called us as your own. We rejoice that You have forgiven and transformed us, and that You have united us as one people, in Jesus Christ, though we are scattered throughout the world. We thank You for the deep joy and peace You give us as we trust fully in You.
     Transform our life together more completely. Give us wisdom and courage in order to structure the life of our churches in order to assure that the needs of the most vulnerable among us are clearly seen, and then provided for in generous ways.
     Raise up leaders who are full of your Spirit to guide this work among us and to help us, as individual members of the body of Christ, to share in glad and gracious ways.  
     May our faithful action speed the ministry of your word in the world and spur many to turn to Jesus and become his disciples. Amen.
