Stewardship Prayer
Gracious and loving God,
As the autumn season continues its transformation; and the days become shorter, the earth cooler; as we join family and friends in joy and celebration on Thanksgiving Day, we pause to give you thanks and praise for the abundant blessings You have bestowed upon us: for life and health, safety and comfort, food and nourishment. Through your Spirit, open our hearts so that we may be even better stewards of Your many blessings.
Show us how to be a blessing for the poor, sick, lonely and all who suffer. And help us nurture the gift of faith, revealed to us by your Son, Jesus Christ, our greatest gift, who reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever.
Amen.
