Opening Prayer:
As we gather for this time together in community,
May a Spirit of comfort ease the burdens of our day;
May a Spirit of peace descend upon us;
May a Spirit of love open our listening hearts; May we be filled by a Spirit of gratitude for this time of communion;
May we be filled by a Spirit of appreciation for all who are here and for those who are absent. Amen.
Closing Prayer:
Hostess: Let us give voice to the gratitude and love that rests within our hearts.
All: Generous God, we thank you for bringing us together in this circle for friendship and fellowship.
Hostess: Let us pray for a safe trip home.
All: O God, you who watch over us by day and by night, keep us safe from harm. Guide us to our homes with care and love. Be a bright light in our darkness. Grant us rest in the midst of our hectic lives. Bless us; bless those we love; bless especially those in pain and loneliness. Amen.
