Gracious God, you call us daily into a daring hope. You give us what we need to sustain that hope. Through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, through the presence of the Spirit, through your faithfulness to us as we gather.

Nurturing God, you call us daily to participate in the wonder of your creation. Our very presence reminds of us your continuous gift of life. Through the creative witness of your people, through the sustaining environment in which we live, through the hearts of those who long for justice.

Loving God, you call us daily into the act of thankful response. We bring the gifts of our love for you, for ourselves and for others. We do this in the knowledge that working together is your wish for us. We lovingly give of ourselves, our time and our wealth.

Inspiring God, let our hearts be on fire for you. Let all that we say and do call others to your abundant grace. Let us embrace that which you have in store for us.

For we are your children, filled with a daring hope for your creation. In the name of Christ. Amen.
