“Blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it.” –Luke 11:28

Prayer

Word of life,

Your word to us is a life-giving gift, a roadmap for thriving in a world so often riddled with chaos, suffering, and challenge. Give us the fortitude to stand firm in your word while inviting others around us to do the same, aligning ourselves more and more with the vision you have for the way we should live and treat one another. For the sake of the communities and neighbors we have the privilege of serving, help us observe your word faithfully. Amen.

Call to Action
