Gathering Prayer
Creator, we give you thanks for all you are and all you bring to us within your creation. In Jesus, you place the Gospel in the center of the sacred circle through which all of creation is related.
You show us the way to live a generous and compassionate life. Give us your strength to live together with respect and commitment as we grow in your spirit, for you are God, now and forever, Amen.
Elsie Dennis gave us this gathering prayer during the Little Feast on Saturday, May 15th. Elsie is from the Sinixt tribe and works in First Nations and multicultural ministries with the Diocese of Olympia.
