Everliving God, whose will it is to restore all people with God and one another through your Son Jesus Christ: Inspire our witness to him, that all may know the power of his Uforgiveness and the hope of his resurrection; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
