A prayer that we might embody God's grace

Jesus, our way and our life,
your love has broken every barrier down,
and by your death and glorious resurrection,
you unite all who put their faith in you.
In this world of conflict and disunity
help us to embody your grace:
to be good neighbours,
to be friends to all,
to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
Open our hearts to claim and cherish
our shared calling to be your disciples,
sharing our life and faith across traditions
with grace and joy.
Unite our prayer with yours,
that in you your children may be one,
that the world may believe.
In your Holy Spirit we pray. Amen.
