Safeguarding Prayers
Loving God,
we pray that this church may be a place of welcome,
security and compassion.
Keep us watchful yet caring,
trusting yet ready to question,
that all who worship here may do so
in safety and in the knowledge of your love;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
May the doors of this church be wide enough
to receive all who come seeking God and fellowship.
May the doors of this church be narrow enough
to shut out pettiness and pride, envy and enmity.
May the threshold of this church be no stumbling block
to young or frail feet.
May the threshold of this church be too high
to admit complacency and self-seeking.
May this church be, for all who enter,
a safe place and the doorway to a richer life in Christ.
