Opening Prayer:
Peace is a destination and a goal to many, but how is it that we achieve a sense of peace in our lives? Tonight, we gather in our homes but together on Zoom. We become aware and present in our space.

The Prayer of Jesus. (from Miriam Therese Winter)
O Holy One who is within around and among us.
We celebrate your many names.
Your wisdom come, your will be done.
Unfolding from the depths within us.
Each day you give us all that we need.
You remind us of our limits, and we let go.
You support us in our power, and we act with courage.
For you are the dwelling place within us,
The empowerment around us,
And the celebration among us,
Now and forever. Amen.

May we have a restful night and a peaceful sleep.
AMEN.
