Prayers for the Journey

God of All Places,
Be with those from the U.S. who are traveling to Poland today and tomorrow to be at EST for a Mission Study Trip. Keep them and their families in Your safe arms. Thank you for those who have been guided by You in planning extraordinary experiences- Rebecca, Marek, Piotr, Wojtek, and Linda- and all of the faculty and staff.


"...For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up..." Psalm 91:11-12a

Go forth, traveler, in the name which is above every name. Be of good courage. Hold fast to that which is good. Render to no one evil for evil. Support the weak. Help the afflicted. Strengthen the faint hearted. Honor everyone. Love and serve the Lord, rejoicing in the power of the Holy Spirit.

And may the blessing of the eternal God,
the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
be upon your going out and
your coming in.

For in Christ there is no east or west, in him no south or north:
but one great fellowship of love throughout the whole wide earth.
