Prayer for Discipleship
Father, our hearts desire is to be united with Christ
We desire to follow in his footsteps
We desire to reflect him to the world around us
All: Shape us into a reflection of you
Give us eyes to see as you would see
Give us ears to hear as you would hear
Give us hearts to love as you would love
All: Shape us into a reflection of you
In taking this bread we become your body in the world
In taking this cup we share your life with the world
By your spirit unite us with the living Christ
All: Shape us into a reflection of you
Take communion together
Prayer of Thanksgiving

Together, at this table, you have offered us life. Together, by your grace, we accept the life you offer.All: And we give you thanks.
