Day 38 (Friday)  

We sing of God’s good news lived out,
a church with purpose:       
    faith nurtured and hearts comforted,       
    gifts shared for the good of all,       
    resistance to the forces that exploit and marginalize,       
    fierce love in the face of violence,       
    human dignity defended,       
    members of a community held and inspired by God,
corrected and comforted,       
    instrument of the loving Spirit of Christ,       
    creation’s mending.
We sing of God’s mission.  

What is “God’s mission”?
How do you participate in God’s mission?
How does your church participate in God’s mission?
