Churchwide Assembly Prayer: As We Conclude Assembly
Holy One, you formed the church to announce the words of eternal life to the world. Equip the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America which concluded its Churchwide Assembly yesterday to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ. Gather the church together into one body for the sake of our shared mission to tell of the love of God. Filled with your Word, turn the church inside out so that we might live lives that proclaim your freedom and renewal to all the world.
As the ELCA concludes its Churchwide Assembly in Milwaukee on August 5-10, 2019, we offer a prayer petition that congregations might consider using within their prayers.
