God of the prophets, you announce salvation for all. In faith we pray: 

God, in your goodness, hear our prayer.  

You gladden us by your deeds: help us to cultivate gratefulness. 

God, in your goodness, hear our prayer.  

You make the righteous fruitful: prosper the work of peacemakers, ambassadors, and diplomats. 

God, in your goodness, hear our prayer.  

You invite us to repentance: help us to forgive and to ask for forgiveness. 

God, in your goodness, hear our prayer.  

Our Father . . .  

May God bless us and fashion our hearts to be one with the Gospel of Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
