Benediction
(inspired by Matthew 5: 13-16)

Our Enlivening God calls us to be salt —
to add flavor to the world.
Our Enlivening God calls us to be light —
to add illumination and beauty to the world.
Our Enlivening God calls us to be courageous —
to respond to the needs of the world,
so that God’s presence may be revealed
to all the world.
Amen! And Amen!
