OPENING PRAYER

Loving Heavenly Father,

We come to you this

hour asking for your
blessings and help as
we have gathered.
Thank you that You
know each of us by
name and have caused
us to walk with You.
 As we surrender
ourselves in adoration
we ask that You would
come by Your Holy
spirit and inspire our
hearts today.
Come fill our lives
with Your Love, fill
our conversations
with Your grace and
truth. Fill this online
program with Your
presence.
 Our prayer today is that
Your Will be done through
this event. Take what we
have prepared and multiply
our efforts as only You can.
Steer our intentions to
align with Your righteous
will.
 Remind us of Your
faithful provision when
our efforts fail us or fall
short. May all glory go up
to You when we reach
the finish line and climb
over benchmarks.
Blanket us with Your
peace today, Father.
 Keep us physically safe
especially with the threats of
this pandemic, guard our hearts
and minds from pride and
selfishness. Keep love at the
forefront of our minds today,
and the guiding light for all we
set out to accomplish and
celebrate.

This we ask, in Jesus’ Name,

Amen.
