Commission & Benediction

(based on Romans 10:5-15)

Brothers and sister,

we are sent by God to share the good news of the gospel,

so that others may discover the peace we have already found—

peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Go in that peace,

to love and serve God and all those you meet.

And may the blessing of God—

Father, Son and Holy Spirit—

be among you and remain with you always.
