Benediction: Being The Hands and Feet of God To The World (based on 1 Corinthians 12:27)

As we go now to be God's presence in the world, may our eyes be open so that we see the world as God sees it. As we go now to be Christ's hands and feet in the world, may our hearts be open to both give and receive.  As we go now to be the Spirit's hope for the world, may our minds be open so that we welcome all as having been wonderfully created in the Divine Image.
