Those traveling; those in recovery and those still suffering from addictions and mental illness; the homeless; those who are homebound or living in nursing homes, especially the Denali Center & Pioneer Home; and all those grieving. We have "Wheat free" communion wafers, made with soy flour and water (containing no gluten, wheat, dairy, eggs, sugar, nuts, nor corn). If you prefer to receive a wheat-free wafer, pick up one of the colored stones on the choir stalls and present at the altar rail.

ear God, May my life be of use to You this year. May my talents

and intelligence help heal the world. May I remember how much I have by remembering how much I have to give. May I not be tempted by smaller things but serve my larger mission of forgiveness and love. Thus, shall I be lifted, God, and know joy this coming year and beyond. Bless me and work through me to bless the entire world.

Amen
