Blessings for Volunteers of the Rummage Sale

O God our Father,
in Your love for us You sent Your only Begotten Son, Jesus
to be our Shepherd and Leader,
our Friend, our Brother and our Lord.

You continue to show Your love for us

by sending us workers, and volunteers to care for your Church. 
Bless our volunteers of the Rummage Sale,
as they take up the responsibilities
among the people of this community.

Let Your Holy Spirit guide them

As they serve your Church
To allow Your Kingdom to come to its fullnness. 
Enable them to utilize the gifts of creativity
And foster the bonds of unity within the community
While promoting a sense of stewardship
at St. Mary Parish.

Give them strength and zeal

in their work of putting on the Rummage Sale
for St. Mary Parish, and the Anacortes community.

Father,

we ask this prayer
through Jesus Christ Your Son
in the love of the Holy Spirit,
one God for ever and ever.  Amen.

Amen.
