PRAYER FOR SEARCH FOR THE NEW BISHOP

Everliving God, you brought your people through the wilderness to a land of plenty, enlivening them with hope: Send down upon your holy catholic Church and our Diocese of Washington the comfort of your Spirit in this time of transition. We pray especially for those who have given themselves to your service in this search for our next bishop. Rekindle in us the fire of love, justice and peace; give us the grace to seek your wisdom, and the determination to draw all people into the unity of your kingdom. And draw our hearts to you, that in all our works we may glorify your Name. We pray this through your Son, our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
