Loving God, creator of all,
Sustainer of the whole universe,
Redeemer of humankind:
In the multi-cultural rainbow of your creation
We celebrate your love for us
A love that reaches into the very depths and heights of our lives.
We know that nothing is hidden from you
No person is outside your love
And that you call us into friendship and fellowship with all women and men.
Give us tenderness in our loving
Persistence in our forgiving
And courage in our justice seeking
So that we may be active partners with you
In the building of your kingdom of justice and love.
Amen.
