In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
Welcoming and gracious God,
whose love and compassion are boundless,
place in us a desire
to greet each person we meet
with the same love, compassion and respect
we would show to you.
Help us to see your face
in every person
and to serve your people
with dignity and care.
Bless us as we seek to love as you loved
and serve as you served.
We ask this through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
