Ever gracious God our parent, how amazing is your grace that you choose us as your people and save us through your Son Jesus Christ. Enable us to be ever conscious of your calling to be an inclusive community that is nurtured by the love of Christ. Guide us through your tender love to be in the flock of Christ and radiate your love and mercy to the people around, through Jesus Christ who lives and reigns as the good shepherd, with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
