Commission & Benediction
(based on Romans 12: 9-12; 2 Thessalonians 2: 16-17)
Let love be genuine.
Hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good.
Love one another with deep affection,
thinking of others more highly than yourself.
Serve the Lord with zeal.
Rejoice in hope.
Be patient in suffering.
Persevere in prayer.
And may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father,
who loved us and by His grace
gave us eternal encouragement and good hope,
encourage your hearts and strengthen you
in every good deed and word.
Amen.
