"Through the power of Christ, we are learning to live in simplicity, thankfulness, contentment and
generosity in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana."

Day 8: Week of Prayer for Christian Unity

Christ and the Samaritan Woman, by Josef von Hempel
Many believed because of the woman’s testimony (John 4:39)

We pray:
God, spring of living water,
Make of us witnesses of unity through both our words and our lives.
Help us to understand that we are not the owners of the well,
And give us the wisdom to welcome the same grace in one another.
Transform our hearts and our lives
So that we might be genuine bearers of the Good News.
And lead us always to the encounter with the other,
As an encounter with you.
We ask this in the name of your Son Jesus Christ,
In the unity of the Holy Spirit.
Amen
