This opening prayer riffs around the idea of God's Big Story, told by Peter at Pentecost and revealed to us by the Holy Spirit.

 

[LEADER] Author of life, God of the beginning and the end,
[ALL] open our ears today to hear your great story.

Jesus, preacher of parables, teller of tales,
open our eyes to see our part in your great story.

Holy Spirit, breath of Heaven, power of Pentecost,
open our imaginations to see the world through your great story. Amen.
