Prayers of Invocation for Maundy Thursday

Adapted from Luke 22:15-16, John 13:34-35, John 3:14-17, Hebrews 10:19-22

Grace to You and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come, and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, and made us a kingdom and priests to his God and Father; To him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

God of grace: you welcome us to the table of our Lord Jesus and give gifts more than we deserve or desire. We are grateful for Christ, who feeds our faith and renews your covenant with us, who by his death gives life to all who trust in him. How can we thank you for his love? Give us a willingness to serve as he has served us, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ your Son. Amen.
