On this Easter day, we pray:

Kind and merciful God,

 May we love enough to see Jesus risen among us in all people and in all life.
Amen.

May we break through attitudes that keep us separate from others and that prevent us from serving others.
 Amen.

May we banish alienation, and work for unity and the common good.
Amen.

May we be instruments of mercy and love and tenderness for all who suffer.
Amen.

May we hear you speaking in our hearts and know you are with us and that you hold us close every day of our lives.
Amen.

May we hold fast to hope and not yield to the despair and cynicism of our time.
Amen.

And may God bless us and all those we love with the best blessings of this holy season.
Amen.

 Amen.  Amen.  and  Amen.  Alleluia!
