Jesus,
you are continuously revealed for
the salvation of the world!

As co-heirs to the promise,
help us claim
the responsibilities and blessings of
citizenship in the eternal kingdom.

Teach us to value all life,
creatred equally, gloriously and uniquely in the divine image,
so that we may seek to cooperate more often than we compete.

Creator God, make us one holy body committed to the struggle
to love more generously,
to share individual gifts more wisely for the common good
and the glory of your name.

Amen.
