Episcopal Church Women's Prayer
Almighty God, we pray that You will bless our work in mission and ministry in the world.

Let us not forget the lessons from the past nor fear the challenges of the future. Anoint us with your grace and shine in our hearts as we reflect your light throughout the world. Amen (revised Fall 2004) |
