Closing Benediction
(inspired by Mark 9:33-37)
Remember
one of the secrets of success according to Jesus:
“If
you want to feel great, be willing to come last and to gladly serve others.”
May
God give you the faith and love to put this into practice,
and
the humility to permit others to do the same for you.
Amen!
Depart
from this house of prayer
with
restored hopes and renewed enthusiasm.
And
the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the
love of God,
and
the fellowship of the Holy Spirit,
will
be with you all, today and evermore.
Amen!
