Closing Benediction
(inspired by John 14: 23-29)

Hear the words of Jesus:

If you love me, then listen to my voice and do what I say.
And I and my Father will draw close to you,
and will make our home within you.
I am leaving you with a gift—a gift the world cannot give:
peace of heart and mind.
So do not let your heart be troubled or afraid.

Go from here to love and serve the Lord,
confident in the peace that Christ offers to each one of us.
