places of our lives!

PRAYER OF INVOCATION
(said out loud, but muted)
Loving God,
In the midst of deep
sorrow and grief
the resurrected Christ
spoke Mary’s name.
Then her eyes were
opened. You call each of us by name, and our hearts are opened.
Come this Easter
morning, we pray,
and fill us with the
joy of the resurrection, that our lives may also be renewed in hope and glory.
In Christ we pray,
Amen.

CLOSING PRAYER
(Said out loud, but muted)
O God, you have become
our light and our salvation –
let these gifts open
the gates of joy
to all who hunger and
thirst for your holy presence
on this and every day.
May they bear the
gifts of Alleluia which we hold so dear,
and give away with
great joy.
We pray in the name of
our Risen Savior, Jesus the Christ! Amen.
