Blessed are you, God of all creation,
You have graced the Church of Pittsburgh
with Your Presence for one hundred and eighty years.
May our continued faithful celebration of the Eucharist enable us
to embody Your love in our families, our parishes, and our neighborhoods,
to all those whom we are called to love.
Send your Holy Spirit to inspire us
to live, learn, and love more fully your Son Jesus in all we say and do.
May we magnify the great things You continue to do through, with, and in us,
helping us to be The Church Forward.
Grateful for all that has been,
hopeful for all that will be,
we give you thanks and praise now and forever. Amen.
From THE CHURCH FORWARD!
