 Dear Lord God, we celebrate Jesus’ life through the art of our stained glass windows. You speak to us through the beautiful windows that remind us of his miraculous birth, to his knocking at the door of our hearts, to his gentle shepherding through our lives and his triumphant resurrection at the tomb on Easter. He was the king with the thorny crown, the light of the world, and king of our lives today. We re-consecrate the historic windows that let in your glorious light and witness to the world our faith, and joy in living for Christ. Dear Lord God, we celebrate Jesus’ life through the art of our stained glass windows.

 Loving God, in Genesis 8, you remind us that, ”As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall not cease.” We thank you for the warmth of our heating system, to protect us in the cold winters, that we can gather to worship and serve in comfort and safety. We gratefully share the warmth with our unsheltered neighbors and praise your lovingkindness. We re-consecrate our new boiler and the hands that repaired it. Loving God, in Genesis 8, you remind us that, ”As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall not cease.” We thank you for the warmth of our heating system, to protect us in the cold winters, that we can gather to worship and serve in comfort and safety.
