Unison Prayer
Luke 13:31-35
Loving God, Jesus longed to comfort the people of Jerusalem, knowing that they would reject him. He longed to fill them with healing and deliverance from evil. We too are called to find compassion for our enemies. Give us the heart of Jesus, we pray. Give us a longing that all people may be gathered into his salvation and covered with his grace. Amen.

February 14, First Sunday in Lent
Unison Prayer
Luke 4:1-13
O God, in the wilderness Jesus was tempted to abandon his God-given task for ways of self-fulfillment, power, and spectacle. We face the same tests. May we use these forty days for redirecting our steps to the way of Jesus and come to Easter prepared by you for whatever tests await us. Amen.

February 7, Transfiguration Sunday
Luke 9:28-43
Unison Prayer
Holy God, bring us to the meeting point of heaven and earth, where the veil parts and glory is revealed. Show us Jesus transfigured, a preview of resurrection-life. Overshadow us with your presence and fill us with awe and silence. Teach us to listen to your Chosen One and to follow him to the shadow-places of society where healing is needed. Astound us with your greatness, we pray. Amen.
