Giving in Grace Prayer

Heavenly Father, give grace to us,
the living stones who form your Church,
to reflect prayerfully at this special time
on our love for You and our neighbour.

Make us mindful of the many gifts You
bestow upon us and we ask that your
Holy Spirit will inspire and direct us
in our choice of giving;
remembering that we are only giving back
that which is truly yours.

Strengthen us, Lord, to meet this challenge
according to your will.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord who has given
all that we may live.

Amen.
