Beloved Jesus, who showed us the way of the Kingdom of Heaven, help us to accept all those who desire to come to you, that we would not turn away anyone because of our distaste or prejudice but welcome as brothers and sisters any who seek to follow your ways, through you who lives and reigns in perfect unity with the Father and Holy Spirit in joy forever. Amen.
‘Then Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because he, too, is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek out and to save the lost.”‘ – Luke 19:9-10
