From Maintenance To Mission

Our parish pilgrims are still in the Holy Land. They are praying for us, so let us remember them in our prayers, too. They are scheduled to return this Monday, January 6th.

Prayer for Pilgrims in the Holy Land

Jesus, I pray that our pilgrims will be spiritually nourished as they travel to the holy places shared by Christians, Jews, and Muslims. Recognizing the tension and conflict they may encounter, I pray for their safety and well-being, and that they will minister to one another and those they meet with patience, kindness, and compassion. I pray that they will encounter you as they walk in your footsteps, and that they will be freshly inspired to teach, pray, welcome, love, and evangelize as you did. And when they return, I pray that they will share their experiences of faith and understanding, not only within our parish, but with the wider world. Amen.
