The WCC Prayer

Dear God,
We acknowledge Your presence in this place
We embrace Your will and purpose
As we seek to excel in every good work…
We ask You to empower us today
And shield our utmost desire
To be Christ-centered
In commitment and character…
We dedicate our time, talents and service to You
For You alone are able to accomplish
What we have started
In Christ’s name we pray, Amen.

plant the seed of my youth to the fertile soil
of authentic Christian leadership.

I am a person of strength, yet my heart
remains broken before Jesus.
