Before Worship

A Prayer Before a Church Service

A Christianity prayer for before worship.

Holy God,

As we gather in worship, turn our hearts toward You. Quiet our distractions, release us from the burdens we have carried through the doors, and prepare us to receive what You would teach us today.

Bless every prayer spoken, every song offered, every word proclaimed, and every person gathered here. Welcome especially those who arrive lonely, uncertain, grieving, or searching for hope.

May we leave this place renewed in faith and ready to carry Your love beyond these walls.

In Christ's name,

Amen.
