Sent Forth By God's Blessing

7-12-2028 Sent forth by God's Blessing,

our true faith confessing,

the people of God from this dwelling take leave.

The supper is ended.

Oh, now be extended the fruits of this service in all who believe.

The see of Christ's teaching, receptive souls reaching,

shall blossom in action for God and for all.

Your grace shall incite us,

your love shall unite us

to work for your kingdom and answer your call.

With praise and thanksgiving to God ever-living,

the tasks of our everyday life we will face ~

Our faith ever sharing,

our love ever caring,

embracing God's children, the whole human race.

With your feast you feed us,

with your light now lead us;

unite us as one in this life that we share.

Then may all the living with praise and thanksgiving

give honor to Christ and his name that we bear.

May God bless Bill Knaggs, Julie Simko, Julie Shrader, Bob Maas, and Pastor Steve Mahaffey.
