Unison Prayer for Today (please stand) Holy Lord, maker of us all, you call us to love our neighbors as ourselves and teach us that faith without works is dead. Open us to the opportunities for ministry that lie before us, where faith and words and the needs of our neighbor come together. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Savior, Amen!
