Benediction: Go Now in Peace

Here’s a closing commission and benediction from Rev. Elizabeth Dilley.

 

Benediction


Go now in peace,
for Christ has called you to live in peace
among your brothers and sisters in Christ.

Go now in courage,
for Christ has called you from the places of your life
to be agents of redemption and partners in healing.

Go now in joy and thanksgiving,
for Christ is our light!

Go now as one body,
to love and serve God as you love and serve the world!
