Alert to God in the Rhythms of Life

I have a new friend in the Anglican Mission. His name is Barclay Mayo. He is helping me get up to speed on contemporary uses of ancient liturgy. Below is a simple commissioning litany he uses in his church. I think it captures well the vibe and focus of 3iE Groups.

Thanks Barclay!

Wherever you call us, Lord, our God,

we want to be ready and willing to go.

Whenever you need us, Lord, our God

we want to be available and attentive.

Whoever turns out to be our neighbour in need,

we want to be happy to serve, without exceptions.

Live within us, Lord our God

So that we notice, with your discernment,

respond with your compassion,

and speak with your integrity.

In our lives and in our world,

let your kingdom come.

Grant us a vision, Lord,

To reach out beyond ourselves

To share our lives with others

To stretch our capabilities

To increase our sense of purpose

To be aware of where we can help

To be sensitive to your Presence

To give heed to your constant call.

Amen.
