God of kindness,
you sent your only Son,
that all might believe
and have abundant life.
Through Jesus’ open heart.
we see your boundless love for the world.
God of love,
baptize our humanity
in the blood and water
that flowed from his pierced side.
So may we proclaim the goodness of Christ to all,
especially to those who believe
they have no access to your mercy.
God of mercy,
we bring to you all that we are,
all that we have,
and all that we do.
Make us a sign of your never ending tenderness.
Receive our offering in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
