Let us pray,
As we gather here in the harbour of your safety, we thank you for friendship and family.
We ask that you will strengthen us, restore us and inspire us with your love.
Lord, would you fill us with your peace,
So that as we journey onwards,
We would pour out your love and grace to others.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
