Awesome God, give your
people power and strength;
pardon our stiff necks,
our iniquity and sin,
and take us for your
inheritance.
May we seek
reconciliation
with those we have
offended
before we come to
worship you.
And console us with your
presence
when we are separated
from those we love.

were made orphans by being separated from you--in person, not in heart--we
longed with great eagerness to see you face to face.

remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift
there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother or sister,
and then come and offer your gift. …” [Jesus to the crowds on the mountain]
