Our Prayer for the Process
Almighty and ever-loving God, be constantly with us during this period of discernment. Guide us as we collectively identify the spiritual gifts and devotion to the church that we seek in the person who will become out next bishop.
Hold open our hearts and minds, help us to see and to listen, and look with favor upon all who engage in this holy work.
We ask this in the name of our savior Jesus Christ, sent by you to accompany us in ministry and shepherd us into life eternal. Amen.
