Planting Our Mustard Seeds

Each one of us, charged, commissioned
to sow the seeds of faith,
planting our mustard seeds
in the soil, in the soil of our hearts
in the hearts of those we meet
serving in the place where we are planted
in the vineyard, in the field, in the villages
in the cities where we live
to the ends of the earth
planting seeds of the harvest
tiny mustard seeds of love
of Christ, of God, grace upon grace
if we are true to our faith
planting mustard seeds
to mature and grow
for the harvest
in God’s time alone

Unison Prayer
“Eternal God, who created us in your own image.
Enable us to fearlessly contend against evil and to
make no peace with oppression.
May we use our freedom with reverence, and
for the establishment of justice to the glory of
your holy name; through Jesus Christ our Savior.”
