A Christmas Prayer for UCC Angola

 

Gracious and loving God,
As we gather together in this holy season, we pause with grateful hearts for the gift of Your Son — the Light that shines in every darkness, the Hope that never fades, and the Love that came to dwell among us. On this Christmas, we thank You for the blessings You’ve poured over our church, for the friendships formed, the laughter shared, the lessons learned, and the quiet moments where Your presence was felt so near.


Lord, we lift up every member of our UCC Angola family — those sitting beside us today, those watching from home, and those near and far who hold this church close in their hearts. Strengthen and comfort those who are hurting, lonely, or grieving this season. Fill them with peace that steadies the soul and joy that reminds them they are never alone. And for those overflowing with celebration and good news — thank You for the abundance of blessings You’ve placed in their lives. Let their joy be contagious and their gratitude shine like Christmas lights in the winter night.


As we move forward into a new year, guide us, O God. Help us carry the spirit of Christmas beyond this day — not only in our words and worship, but in the way we treat one another, welcome newcomers, forgive freely, and love generously. Let our doors be open, our hearts be soft, and our church be a home where all are embraced and valued.


May we continue to grow in faith, in service, and in community. Use us to spread kindness, to be bearers of hope, and to shine Your light in a world that needs it. Bless our pastors, our leaders, our volunteers, and every person who gives of themselves to make this church a place of compassion, joy, and connection.


We thank You, God, for Jesus — the greatest gift.
May His love guide our steps today and always.

In Your holy name we pray,
Amen.
