Beginning Our Next 50 Years
A Prayer for St. Barnabas
Loving God, by whose grace we have our very being; we give you most hearty thanks for St. Barnabas and his example of mission and ministry, and we give you thanks for this parish which carries his name. As we begin our next fifty years of service to you and to the world, we ask that you continue to bless us as abundantly as you have in the past. We ask that your Holy Spirit teach and guide us as we move forward into the future, keeping us always aware that we are your hands, feet and voice in the world, called to love you and our neighbor in all that we do. We pray these things in the name of your perfect servant, Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Faithfully, Fr. John B+
