UNISON PRAYER:
Almighty God, blessed are we to worship and lift your name on high. We are in harvest season; a time when we gather with family and friends at farms, corn mazes, and pumpkin patches; spending time for fellowship and gathering fruits and vegetables before winter’s rest. We give thanks to you, O Lord, for the bounty we receive–Not just the bounty of food, but of relationships, and family. We give you all the honor and praise. In Jesus we pray. Amen.
