A PRAYER DURING RECONSTRUCTION OF OUR PARISH HOUSE
God of Love and Grace, you have been calling us together in this place for many years.
You have been present with previous Christ Church congregants who found themselves in need of a place to gather for fellowship and learning, for celebrations and deliberations, in good times and in difficult times.
Many cups of coffee and tea have been shared here and many friendships in Christ have been created and nourished here. Many people have found lives of sobriety through the AA meetings here.
May this generation of Christ Church members be the sure, steady, and loving home with Christ as our center and sure-foundation.
We ask your blessing upon all of those who have been or will be involved in this time of rebuilding. In all that they do, may they know that you are ever with them and that they are instruments of your blessing and grace. Protect them in their working and give them joy in all that they do.
Finally, may our new Parish House be an open and welcoming place
for us and for those who will make it their spiritual home. We ask these things in the name of your Son, Jesus Christ, who calls us all to be a community of welcome and peace. Amen.
