Generous God,
you endow us with gifts for the good of creation:
make us trustworthy in all things,
that we may share with Christ
the work of your kingdom;
through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
One God, now and forever. Amen.

AUTHOR OF LIFE,
HEALER OF THE NATIONS;

FOR JESUS CHRIST’S SAKE. AMEN
Commission & Benediction
Go now, and live as children of the light.
Put on the breastplate of faith and love,
and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
Make the most of all God has given you
and encourage one another in Christ.
And may God’s hand be open to you in kindness;
May Christ Jesus welcome you into his joy;
And may the Holy Spirit fill you with courage, vigilance and faithfulness.
Let us go in peace to love and serve the Lord,
In the name of Christ. Amen.
