Prayer: Signs of Hospitality

Here’s a prayer of thanksgiving and petition from the Diocese of Canterbury website.

Prayer

Ever-loving God,
we bow before you in reverence.
You search for us, care for us,
and welcome us home.
We belong to you.

Transform us into your likeness,
and feed us through your generous Word.
As we wait for the Spirit
make us more and more signs of your hospitality,
so your kingdom may come, on earth as in heaven.
Amen
