Christmas Blessing - 2017
35th year of Deacon Dave’s Display
Good and Gracious God, we seek the Peace of Christmas
For our lives, towns and cities.
We Celebrate Christmas 2017 with our prayer
For peace and an end to violence. We bring to the Manger
Our petition for respect and sacredness of life.
We place our sadness and tears at the Manger, for the children,
Teens and adults who lost their lives by gun violence.
We pray for the Holy Innocents.
We ask you O God to bless our first responders,
Police, Fire, EMT’s and all who respond to emergencies.
Each light at the House of the Dove this Christmas Season
Is dedicated as a prayer for the wellbeing and safety of first responders.
May the blessings of Christmas be upon you to help and guide
You through the coming year. May you share the Peace, Love
And Joy of the Season.
Let us pray, asking God’s Blessing on the 2017
Christmas Display Team.
I humbly ask the Lord our God, to bless those who walk under these
Lights, may their healing light warm your heart and soul. May the Holy Spirit
Comfort you and give you the radiant light of Christ.
May Almighty God bless you, In the name of the Father, and of the Son,
And of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
