2 Corinthians 9:8

And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

Almighty God, we give you thanks and praise for the gifts of your creation which you ask us to faithfully steward with our time, effort, and substance. We ask you to guide and govern us into practices of generosity and gratitude which enliven and support our shared ministry and efforts at St. Mark's, that Christ's love and abundance might be made known more fully throughout our community by both our service and our giving; through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN
