Almighty and everliving God, source of all wisdom and understanding, be present with those who take counsel for the renewal and mission of your Church. Teach us in all things to seek first your honor and glory. Guide us to perceive what is right, and grant us both the courage to pursue it and the grace to accomplish it; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen (from the Book of Common Prayer)
My own prayer:
Almighty God, please grant all who are attending the Convention the wisdom and strength to practice the Baptismal Covenant, especially in matters of respecting the dignity of every human being. Especially look upon our sister, Bishop Katharine. Let her be an effective and strong leader during any turmoil that may strike during this time. Grant her safe travel, make her an instrument of peace and reconciliation. +In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
