Gracious God, we come rejoicing before you. You are the God of salvation. We give you praise. When we cry for help you hear us; You have turned our mourning into dancing.

We ask that you would continue to grace us and that all we say and do in this place, and beyond it, give glory and honor to your wondrous name. AMEN.
