A collect based on Luke 19: 11-27
Christ, who knew that a life lived without risk was not a life worth living.
The urgency of your Gospel impels us to boldly reach out to those in need.
For, silence and inactivity are not acceptable responses to a world that yearns for the heart of Christ within us, and
A boat in the harbour is safe but that is not what boats are for.
May we set sail. Amen.
