Sovereign God, we thank you for your Son who commissioned us to be the disciples to go out and proclaim the Gospel, to make disciples of all nations and to demonstrate the reality of your love through word and deed. We humbly ask you to strengthen, equip and inspire each one of us for your service that we may joyfully serve you, sensitively proclaim you and faithfully express your love for all, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit one God, now and for ever more. Amen
