Benediction
(based on Philippians 1: 21-30)

One:     Let us continue in our work.
All:       Let us live in manner worthy of the gospel of Christ.
One:     Let us be in one spirit, striving side by side,
All:       Let us find Christ in our struggles,
One:     Let us be surprised by the joy in our faith,
All:       Let us find you, O God, in all our work. Amen.
