and have it abundantly.' John 10:10

give us a broader view of justice;
give us dreams of peace
that are not defined by boundaries of geography

Open our eyes and our
ears
that wherever we go,
we may hear your voice calling us by name;
calling us to serve,
calling us to share,
calling us to praise,
so that we never give up on the promise of your kingdom,
where the world is transformed,
and all can enjoy life in all its fullness.
Amen.
