March - Sundays

"Help us, O Lord of the Sabbath, to gain a spirit of genuine worship and helpfulness. May we destroy the critical spirit within us by fostering the helpful and sympathetic outlook. May mercy and compassion control our motives that we may fill each Lord's day with deeds of worship and praise. Amen."

March 7

"Give to us, our God, a larger view of your kingdom and your work. May we hear your command, "Go you into all the world," and have the peace of your presence always with us. May we meet our own doubts as you did meet those of your disciples, with the definite command of large, world-wide duty. In Christ's name. Amen."

"Almighty and eternal God, you who are the only true God, grant to us, your children, hearts always in tune with you. May it be our constant joy to do your will, with all our hearts. May we learn to love you more as we follow your comands. Keep us so near you that we may not be influenced by other companions. For Christ's sake. Amen."
