Reaching New Heights Prayer

Loving God,
font of our blessing,
You have led us to this place to find you -
in ourselves and in each other.

You have made this place and time our spiritual home.
And you have been faithful and we have been blessed.

Foundation of our faith,
You have called us to grow and sent us
to serve as your priestly people.

You have showered us with abundant grace
and anointed us with holy gifts.

And you have been faithful and we have been blessed.

Cornerstone of our hope,
Make firm this foundation built with human hands -
Where barriers of stone and mortar no longer remain;
Where faith flourishes, hope heals, love sustains;
Where all are welcome and known by name;
And where peace and justice are ever proclaimed.

Extend your kingdom here through us
for the honor of your name.

For you are faithful and ALL shall be blessed.
