God’s Family Worships
12th Sunday After Pentecost
August 28, 2022
11:00 A.M.
Eternal God, we pray to you with a sense of wonder. You are far beyond our ability to comprehend or define, yet you come to us as Parent and Friend. We pray now that you will direct our minds to your Son, Jesus Christ. Help us to capture his vision of goodness, truth, and love. Enable us to take that spirit of his into our daily lives. Through him, may we live life in a new dimension; and through lives transformed by him, may this broken world find its way to truth and peace. Amen.
