Creator God,
We give thanks for the wonder and intricacy of the created order; we are left in awe when we consider the ecosystems that sustain life in all its forms.

Loving God,
When we look across our church, we give thanks for the many ways that people worship and serve across our country, and the interconnected systems that sustain and encourage your people in faith and discipleship. We pray for all followers of Jesus, those who we easily connect with, and those who challenge us as we seek connection.

God who hears our cries,
We pray for your continuing guidance and encouragement as we join with you in mission and the bringing near of the kingdom of God. We pray that our words and actions will bear witness to Godโ€™s mercy, peace and love across our communities of faith, and in our neighbourhoods and the world.

We bring these prayers to you, O God,
Through your risen Son, Jesus the Christ.
Amen.

In the awesome name of God,
In the victorious name of Jesus,
In the mysterious name of the Spirit,
We offer our thanks and praise to the communion of God, and we wait;
We are still (light first candle),
We listen (light second candle),
We wait (light third candle).

God of all time, you create us, gift us and call us to be co-workers in the creative tasks of bringing love, hope, justice and transformation to a broken world.

Gracious God, we wait for the sounds of your presence amongst us, trusting that you never leave us without witnesses, teachers, prophets and peace makers. Help us to listen for the voices of our First Peoples, of Uniting Aboriginal and Islander Christian Congress, of Northern Regional Council of Congress, congregations in remote communities, and all those who seek to hear your call and celebrate your presence in their lives.

Merciful God, we wait for the sounds of discipleship, trusting in your provision of generous hospitality, patient endeavour and courageous activity. Help us to listen for the voices of caretakers, cleaners, chaplains and friends. We give thanks for all those children and young people who seek to hear your call and celebrate your presence in their lives.

Wisdom God, we wait for the sounds of leadership, trusting in your invitation to be community, to gather around your table, share a simple meal, break open your word and feel pain. Help us to listen to the voices of those who protest, write letters, campaign, advocate and pray. We give thanks for our agencies, Uniting World, Uniting Care, Frontier Services and all those who seek to hear your call and celebrate your presence in their lives.

Shaped by the breaking of bread and the gushing of wine, God opens our minds, touches our heart and calls us to participate together in His divine presence.

Thanks be to God,
Amen.

Loving God,

We pray for those in positions of authority and responsibility. Let humility, integrity and empathy be the compass that guide them towards peace, justice and protection. Grant our leaders the wisdom to see through the eyes of those they serve. Help them understand their joys and sorrows alike.

We pray for those with no power over their own lives. For those who have been silenced, or who are yet to find the courage to raise their voices. Guide them to find hope in the stars on the darkest nights and solidarity in their siblings across the globe. May they encounter kindness in the most unlikely times, and know that they are seen, heard, and loved.

We pray for our world in this time of deep uncertainty. Help us find stability within ourselves and each other. When division grows louder than understanding, conflict obscures the path towards peace, remind us of our shared humanity. Teach us to see beyond borders, beliefs and differences, recognising in one another the same dignity, worth and longing for hope.

We pray for each other as we walk alongside you as Creator, Christ and Holy Spirit in our respective journeys of faith. Strengthen us to lead with compassion, serve with humility and trust in your discernment when the road ahead seems unclear. Help us to be a source of light to our neighbours who are lost in darkness and a voice for those who cannot speak.

May our faith be reflected not through our words but through the way we care for one another and the world around us, regardless of who or where we are.

Amen.

God of life,
Holy Spirit, poured out on all people (Acts 2:17),
You speak in every language and gather all, into one body in Christ.

As we approach the 49th Anniversary of the Uniting Church in Australia, we pause as one Church
to pray, to listen again, to be renewed, and to be made one in You.

Quiet our hearts, Lord,
so we may hear Your voice, in stillness and in the voices of one another.
For Your Word calls us to be โ€œquick to listenโ€ (James 1:19)
and reminds us that we belong to one body
(1 Corinthians 12:12).

Teach us to listen across cultures and stories.
Open us to the gifts of CALD communities, whose faith and resilience enrich Your Church.
Form in us humility, patience, and love.
