A Celtic Prayer
Heavenly Father,
Give to us all a quiet understanding and a will to reach out to each other in compassion.
May we be mindful of others’ opinions, but delighting always in
the wonderful diversity of gifts we each bring to your family.
And may we never forget that the world sees you in all that we do
And all that we say.
Amen.
