Prayer:

Lord, we come before you for the next month, and covenant together to seek after your vision for us. We set ourselves and our desires and plans aside to look for your plan, precious Lord. Show us your plans, even if it is just a glimpse, even if it is just the next step. Embolden us to faithfully respond, in order to shine your light in this community, and beyond. Amen.
