Council of Elders Weekly Call to Prayer

Father and Mother God, in Jesus we have the greatest and best experience we can have as disciples of Christ: to meet with Christians from different places and pray for one another. Something extraordinary happens within us. We feel the ecumenical spirit that connects us to You, God, in so many names and in so many ways, springing up and growing. As we say a common prayer, we begin to see the Church and Christianity in a new way. What a look of a loving Father you express for us. We realize that, despite our divisions in this evil world, what divides us or even oppresses us is very small compared to what unites us with you. Ecumenical prayer comes first in our journey towards unity in the Church. We can dialogue, praise, speak, make agreements about our similarities and our differences. However, everything will be sterile if it is not soaked in prayer and bathed in love. Thank you, for the peace that comes from the throne of the Eternal, covering each and every one of us. Holy Spirit fills our being with love, welcoming us, and may we also have place in our lives to welcome everyone. By your grace, bless our leaders and churches from MCC on this earthly plane. Long live love. Amen.
