Good and gracious God, we give you thanks for your gift of Good Shepherd Church to all of us. All that we have is yours. Give us the strength, courage, and inspiration to give back to you through the ministry of our church, so that Good Shepherd can continue to grow and flourish for the sake of your love. Help us to see what you want to do through us as we realize our dream of a parish hall together. Unite our wills to yours then let your will be done; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
