Centering Prayer: God, we cannot possibly  begin to know the complexities of the world in their fullness.  And yet, in the midst of our confusion you create openings for resurrection that remind us of your new life offered to us.  Through Christ, you redeem the world.  Speak to us, we pray.  AMEN.

Centering Prayer: Help us be patient, God, when our lives seem to move faster and faster beyond our control.  Steady our pace as your spirit renews our lives in this time of worship.  We seek to love and know your more and more.  Speak to us, we pray.  AMEN.

Theme: God's Harvest creates a lot from a little

Centering Prayer: Lord of all creation, you have demonstrated in countless ways how just a small touch of your grace is sufficient to change our lives.  As stewards of your great compassion, we seek to be reminded that in you we always find enough.  Speak to us, we pray.  AMEN.
