Sharing Our Lives Prayer Mother and Father in heaven, let be made holy your name. Let come your kingdom. Our bread, our everyday bread, keep on giving to us, today. And release for us our sins, As we also release anyone obligated to us. And do not bring us into testing. Amen. (Translation by Mary Schertz) Benediction Sending Prayer ``God whose justice washes away our complacency, our falseness; To the wilderness of our world you send prophets bearing good news. Grant us grace to heed their call to release our grip on our privilege, our possessions, and our violence That our lives may be marked by integrity and others may share in your good gifts.''
