Opening Prayer: Almighty God, to whom all hearts are open and all desires known and from you no secrets are hidden, cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of Your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify Your holy Name. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.

Psalm 8

Read: 1 Corinthians 9:19-26

Silent or written reflection

Prayer: for the church, for others, and for myself

Hymn: “For All the Saints”
For all the saints who from their labors rest,
Who Thee by faith before the world confessed,
Thy name, O Jesus, be forever blest.
Alleluia! Alleluia!

O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle; they in glory shine.
Yet all are one in Thee, for all are Thine.
Alleluia! Alleluia!

But Lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day:
The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of Glory passes on His way.
Alleluia! Alleluia!

From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son and Holy Ghost:
Alleluia! Alleluia!

Closing Prayer: My Heavenly Father, thank you for the opportunity to be in Your transforming presence today, come into my life and change me. Amen.
