A Prayer for General Conference
Almighty God, we come before you with hearts full of
gratitude and anticipation. We recognize the significance of
this moment when delegates and volunteers from across the
globe will come to Charlotte, NC to serve and represent our
worldwide denomination. Grant them wisdom, discernment,
and compassion as we offer hospitality, engage in dialogue,
make decisions, and carry out the work of your Kingdom,
with a spirit of humility and servant leadership.
May each delegate and volunteer be a vessel of your love,
peace, and unity, seeking to build bridges of understanding
and reconciliation among all Your children. Grant them
courage to speak truth with grace, strength to stand firm in
their convictions, and openness to listen with empathy and
respect for differing perspectives. Bless their efforts with
fruitfulness and effectiveness, that through their service, your
purposes may be fulfilled and Your name glorified. May your
Spirit infuse every interaction, every decision, and every
moment of this time of holy conferencing, guiding us
towards greater unity, deeper faith, and transformative love.
In Christ’s holy and precious name, we pray. Amen.
