Commission &
Benediction
(inspired by Luke 1:47-55)
Never put
your faith in worldly status,
and never underestimate your heavenly
importance.
My soul
magnifies the Lord,
and my
spirit rejoices in God my Saviour.
Let your
trust in the coming of Christ soar within you like wings of joy.
Go out into
the world and serve one another as God-bearers.
My soul
magnifies the Lord,
and my
spirit rejoices in God my Saviour.
Grace,
mercy and peace, from God our Creator,
through
Jesus our Saviour,
in the
fellowship of the Holy Spirit our Nurturer,
be with you
this day and evermore.
Amen!
