Gracious God and Father,
We are your people embraced by your love.
We thank you for your presence with us
throughout all time.
As we celebrate the 2000 years since the birth
of Jesus, your Son: Create us anew.
Liberate us from all that keeps us from you.
Send your Holy Spirit, enabling us
to recreate our world and restore justice.
Heal us from every form of sin and violence.
Transform us to live your Word more profoundly.
Reconcile us so enemies, become friends.
Awaken us to the sacred;
Nurture our relationships;
Enliven our parishes; reunite our families.
Fill us with joy to celebrate the fullness of life.
Empower us to be a community of love
growing in your likeness by the
grace of Christ our Lord.
Amen.
