Maundy Thursday
Lord and Teacher, you kneel to serve and call us to follow. As we remember your commandment to love, we offer these gifts in response to your mercy. Strip away every hesitation and selfish concern, that we may give with courage and devotion. We offer ourselves—our prayers, presence, gifts, witness, and service—now and always. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen. John 13:1-17; 31b-35
