Resurrected God,
Though we have hidden ourselves in a locked room and huddled together as ones who build barriers, send
your Living Word through our locked doors and into our guarded hearts that we might be witnesses of your
grace and couriers of your goodness.
By the power of your Holy Spirit, grant us the trust to believe the Gospel not because we see it but because we
have been seen by it and transformed through it. Amen.

-Stephen M. Ferring
