God of love,
we find you in our own sacred and holy spaces
the tables where we find you,
the closets where we find ourselves in you,
the relationships where we come to know you more.
make the spaces where each of us finds ourselves a reflection of your love.
God of rainbows,
we celebrate the many colors by which we all gather
the colors that shape our identities
the many colors that make up our flags
the many colors that make up our bodies
we find that each of these shades is a reflection of your love for us.
God of peace and justice,
as we remember the struggle that unites us in our heritage let us not forget that this fight is not over
While we celebrate today, remind us
tomorrow there is still work to be done
not only in our community,
but in too many marginalized communities
let our love extend like your love, well beyond our own created borders.
God,
may we find love as abundant as yours in learning from each other may we have the ability to make mistakes and to continue learning may we find the courage to radically expand our welcomes
may we breathe in slowly… and know we are filled with enough.
