Congratulations to our congregation and our Deacons.

Almighty God, by your Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit
you gave to your apostles many excellent gifts.
Give your grace to all who have been called to representative ministry,

Grant that we your people may follow where you lead,
perfect our ministries,
and live in joyful obedience to your will
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
