A Prayer for the Week of Worship and Fellowship, September 21, 2025

Dear Eternal Spirit of Light and Love, we lift up all places of worship this week—chapels, temples, mosques, synagogues, meetinghouses, and quiet corners where hearts gather in reverence. May each space be filled with peace, purpose, and the gentle movement of Your presence.

We hold especially in the Light the Champaign-Urbana Society of Friends, as they prepare to gather in song, silence, and shared discernment. Bless the hymn singing at 10:00 AM with joy and unity, as voices rise in harmony and hearts open to grace.

At 10:30 AM, as Friends settle into the sacred silence, may Your Spirit guide each soul—those in the meeting room and those joining from afar. Let the stillness speak, and may each person feel held, heard, and led.

Bless the time of introductions and announcements at 11:30 AM. May it be a space of welcome, clarity, and connection. Watch over the children in preschool care, that they may be safe, nurtured, and joyful.

As refreshments are shared and fellowship deepens, may laughter and kindness flow freely. And as the monthly meeting for worship for business begins around noon, grant wisdom, humility, and unity to all who participate. May decisions be made with integrity, compassion, and a shared sense of purpose.

We pray for all who enter these spaces—longtime members, first-time visitors, seekers and servants alike. May they find belonging, inspiration, and the courage to live out their faith in the world.

Guide us through this week with open hearts and steady hands. May our worship be sincere, our fellowship rich, and our service rooted in love.

In the Light that knows no bounds, Amen.

In the Light that knows no bounds, Amen 💕✌️🙏
