Prayer by Jonathan Montaldo

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Holy Spirit God,

save us from our enclosed communities of faith.

Save us from our churches of meanness.

Save us from our blindness to your great commandment

that we love one another as we should love you:

with all our mind,

with all our heart,

and all our strength.
