Sheltering God, you surround us with cries of deliverance. In hope we pray: 

God of the covenant, hear our prayer.  

Inspire ways for your Church to sustain a synodal lifestyle that promotes communion, participation, and mission. 

God of the covenant, hear our prayer.  

Help us to be inclusive, community-minded, and peaceful. 

God of the covenant, hear our prayer.  

Renew hope and purpose in those who suffer failure, regret, or disappointment. 

God of the covenant, hear our prayer.  

Our Father . . .  

May God strengthen our faith and transform us into pilgrims of Christian hope, through Jesus our peace. Amen.
