Scripture So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation; Â that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself,* not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting the message of reconciliation to us. - 2 Corinthians 5:17-19
Prayer It is the beginning of a a new school year, and God is a God of new beginnings and new creations. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth, new life, blessed it and called it good. All: We give thanks for a new year and for new beginnings. We give thanks that you call us good.
In the beginning, the heavens shone forth a star when our Saviour was born. In the beginning of his ministry, the heavens opened up and called him God’s beloved. All: We give thanks that you know our pathways and what it means to be human. We give thanks that you call us your beloved children.
