This responsive litany of dedication is appropriate to the blessing of financial pledges, offerings, or simply recommitting our energies to the church for a new year. It was created in concert with the sermon series Entrusted Treasures.
God, you have trusted us to worship:
we trust our gifts of money, skills, and presence to this church
so that we may worship you worthily here.
God, you have trusted us to grow in faith:
we trust our gifts of money, skills, and presence to this church,
so that our faith may be nurtured and deepened here.
God, you have trusted us to dwell in community:
we trust our gifts of money, skills, and presence to this church
so that we may create a place where all are loved and welcomed.
God, you have trusted us to care for your children:
we trust our gifts of money, skills, and presence to this church
so that we may joyfully live out your justice and compassion.
Eternal Lord, bless the promises we make today;
help us run the race without tiring,
holding always to the faith we have in you. Amen.
