Holy God, today we praise you as the one who loves the entire world. We stand before you with open hearts, open minds, and open doors ready to hear your call. Help us to always respond confidently with the words, “Here I am Lord, I will go Lord, I will hold your people in my heart.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever. Amen. (Matthew 6:9-13)
