Scripture Verse for the Week: Jesus turned and saw them following him and said
to them, “What are you looking for?” They said to
him, “Rabbi”--which translated means Teacher--
“where are you staying?” He said to them, “Come,
and you will see.” - Jn 1:38-39a

Week of Prayer for Christian Unity
January 18-25, 2018
Unity. What does "unity" mean? For those of us who
claim Christ as our model of living and savior of human-
ity, it means we are one. This year the Week of Prayer for
Christian Unity has as its theme the Scripture citation 2
Corinthians 5:14-20. The first line contains our mission
statement... "For the love of Christ impels us, once we
have come to the conviction that one died for all; there-
fore all have died." If that is not a mandate for unity, then
there is none. We are one in the death of Christ and there-
fore live in unity with all other Christians.
God, who are unity in three holy persons--Father, Son,
and
and Holy Spirit--you have called us to live in peace with
all people.
You have also called us to work toward unity in purpose
to spread the Gospel to all nations.
Graciously give us the courage and strength to work to-
ward unity, and act toward each other as brothers and sis-
ters.
We ask this in the unity of God, Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit.
Amen.
