Prayer

Dear God,

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to gather.


Thank you for protecting us as we travel and for providing the way for us to meet, learn, and grow.


As we begin our conference, we dedicate the time to you. We pray for the presenters, attendees, and volunteers who make this conference possible.


Your Word says in Colossians 3:17, “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” 


Thank you for blessing our time together. Help us make new connections and gain wisdom to do the work you’ve set before us. We give you honor and glory, Lord.

Amen
