O merciful Creator, your hand is open wide to satisfy the needs of every living creature: Make us always thankful for your loving providence; and grant that we, remembering the account we must one day give, may be faithful stewards of your good gifts; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
From the Book of Common Prayer: For Stewardship of Creation
Celebrating our blessings this weekend, with thankfulness and gratitude for you, dear friends, who have welcomed and invited us into your conversations, into your inboxes and hearts. We commune this weekend at our own tables, remembering the common table around which we will one day gather, for an eternal and unending feast with the perfect and essential Host. May you continue to open your doors and your hearts to those around you, and may your hospitality always and ever be a reflection of the generous hospitality extended first by Christ.
Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you, and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love for one another and for all, as we do for you, so that he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints. (1 Thessalonians 3:11-13)
