WORSHIP, WITNESS, SERVE
At St. Augustine’s in-the-Woods, our mission is to worship God, witnessing to Jesus Christ by serving the church, parish, community and world in which we live, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
A PRAYER FOR OUR PARISH BASED ON THE WORDS OF SAINT AUGUSTINE OF CANTERBURY
Good and Gracious God, we know that you desire to bestow your grace upon us. You are our portion and our joy, and you offer us the inheritance of your love and peace. We pray, in this spirit and sentiment of love, that we may do your will, and bide your time, and see your glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
