We thank you, God, for calling us to grow and serve as Christian disciples. Through the care of families, the love of Christ, and the nurture of the Christian community, we are shaped and strengthened. We thank you, God, for equipping us to grow and serve as Christian disciples. As Christ’s disciples, we are sent forth to proclaim our faith. We thank you, God for sending us to serve. Led by those who were called forth to lead and teach and model the faith, we follow their example and witness. We thank you, God, for providing the gifts of leading, teaching, and learning. Teachers and leaders, you have heard God’s call. Will you let your light shine before others so they see your good works? With God as our helper, we will. With God’s help we will support and encourage one another. We dedicate ourselves to growing and serving. We thank you, God, for claiming us and blessing us with so many gifts. As we use these gifts, may our service reflect your abiding presence and the light of faith we bear together, in Jesus name we pray. Amen.
