Opening Prayer of Adoration
(inspired by John 3:14-21)

We praise you loving and eternal God
for your love of all people
expressed in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
We praise you for his commitment to justice,
his zeal for true worship of you
and his willingness to replace all other sacrifices
with the sacrifice of his own life.
In his name we offer you our worship. Amen.
