Congregation Care

O God, in the course of this busy life, give us times of refreshment and peace; and grant that we may so use our leisure to rebuild our bodies and renew our minds, that our spirits may be opened to the goodness of your creation; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

"Prayer for the Good Use of Leisure," from The Book of Common Prayer, p. 825.

We recognize that to live as a true family in Christ, we must ensure that every member is known, nourished, and sustained through intentional prayer, practical support, and communal care.
