Grant us clear eyes to see people as you see them, sensitive feet to stand in their shoes, and warm smiles to welcome them into your name. Give us generous hearts that our church becomes a foretaste of heaven where every soul you send us finds their loving home in the community of your Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ.
