Variation on a Prayer of St. Patrick
I breathe in joy as I stand today:
Calling on the Source, the Wellspring and the Living Water
Believing in the Threeness,
Witnessing the Oneness
On my way to meet you face to face.
Now let’s spend about one minute using part of this prayer as a breath prayer. On the in breath, say: “I breathe in love.” On the out breath: “…as I stand today.”
Petitionary Prayer
Today we’ll pray that the Spirit of Love will permeate our life and the lives of those we know and love.
Story from All Creation Waits
Story from the Advent book, All Creation Waits, written by Gayle Boss and illustrated by David Klein—today’s story is about the red fox.
Reflection on Story
The author talks about how the fox is led by something she can’t quite see. Let’s take a minute to meditate on how we can’t see God, we can sense the presence of Divine Love quietly leading us.
Benediction
Go in peace
Wash your hands
Love your neighbor
You are not alone.
