Prayer for Evangelization
Loving God,You called us each by name
And gave your only Son to redeem us
In your faithfulness
You sent the Holy Spirit
To complete the mission of Jesus
Among us
Open our hearts to Jesus
Give us the courage to speak his name
To those who are close to us
And the generosity to share his love
With those who are far away
We pray that every person
Throughout the world
Be invited to know and love Jesus
As Savior and Redeemer
May they come to know his all-surpassing love
May that love transform every element of our society
We ask this through Christ, Our Lord
Amen!

May that love transform every element of our society
We ask this through Christ, Our Lord
Amen!

thank you! This prayer was in our liturgical prayer book last year. I need it tonight for a church meeting, and the handwritten copy I'd made was lost in my luggage this weekend after a trip to see my daughter graduate from Navy boot camp. I am grateful to find a copy on the internet, to be able to have it and share it tonight. you really helped me out! God bless you
What an encouring prayer to remind us of the importance of our role as Christ's apostles. Knowing that Jesus has an "all-surpassing" love for us is of great comfort. For his sacrifice on our behalf, let us all spread his message of love and encourage others to become his followers.
