As pilgrims to the realm of peace we swap our stories on the road. Discarding battle-flag and gun, we help to bear our neighbor's load. Our holy symbols come from home - a kitchen table simply spread, a festive meal that makes us friends, a jug of wine, a hunk of bread. We thank you, Jesus, overjoyed that we, receiving bread and wine, fulfill your forebears' widest hopes as branches of your living vine. [*Equip the servants you ordain to publish and embrace your call, that they, encouraged by our prayers, may comfort and inspire us all.] Pour out your Spirit, day by day our verve, our vision to increase. Make us, as pilgrims on the road, a preview of your realm of peace. *For ordination & commissioning occasions only
