WE COME IN PRAYER: Most Holy God, You have placed Your holy message of salvation into us sinful and lowly creatures. Draw us into Your presence and cleanse us of all our sins. Continue to fill us with a clear vision of Your great glory, that we may be effective witnesses for Jesus Christ. In His precious name we pray. Amen.
