Prayer for and of the members of New LifeLoving God, be with us and guide us during this time of discernment.  Fill our leaders, especially the Call Committee, with your wisdom.  Lead us and guide us O Lord to be about the work of your kingdom even as the search for a new pastor continues.  Bless all who have taken on extra responsibility and fill them with a sense of your love and presence.  Guide those who are discerning their calls in ministry and put a “fire in their bellies” that one may be led to New Life.  We pray in your Son’s name Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.
