DEDICATION OF OURSELVES, OUR GIFTS AND OUR COMMITMENTS TO GOD
Prayer of Dedication
Gloria MacGamwell
There are no gifts like the many you give us. Take these willing offerings from us
to do your work among those in need: to bring hope to the hopeless, food to the hungry,
shelter to the homeless, peace to the war-weary, comfort to the lonely and light in the
darkness. Amen.

UNISON PRAYER
Mary Cummings
God, you are both father and mother to all. We know you because we have known
those whose lives are filled with the good work you have called us to do. We know you
because we have loved and been loved. We know you because we have seen you in the
faces of men, women and children who bring your peace to the world through their hands,
their words, their dedication to the way of righteousness. Thank you, God, for the
peacemakers, the ordinary people whose extraordinary lives show us your face in theirs.
Amen.
