Light of the world, who walked among those who did not receive you, we thank you for welcoming us into your family. Grant us faith more and more to trust in you and walk as your beloved sisters and brothers, grafted into the life that comes from the Father above, through you who lives and reigns in glory with the Father and Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen.
‘He came to what was his own, and his own people did not accept him. But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God.’ – John 1:11-12
