Opening Hymn - Jesus Loves Me, This I Know - #191
Unison Prayer
Listening God, you hear the cries we whisper and the cries we cannot speak. In a world still marked by fear, abandonment, and unfairness, you remain the one who listens and who hears the voices of the outcast, the wounded, the overlooked. As we bring our offerings today, open our ears as yours are open. Make our giving an act of solidarity with those whose voices rise in need. Use these gifts to reveal your presence, to bring water into desert places, and to remind all your children that they are not alone. Shape us into people who hear because we have been heard. Amen.

Joyful Giver of Miracles, we come to you with hearts open to the unexpected, for you are the God who surprises us with joy, even in seasons of waiting and even through our disbelief.

Bless these gifts, O God, that they may bear witness to your goodness and extend joy, hope, and welcome to the world you so love.

Use these offerings to build relationships, to mend the broken, and to draw all families of the earth toward your heart.
