Adjournment and Closing Prayer
May it be said of our personal and corporate ministry, “They have preached the Gospel to the poor, they have brought healing to the sick in Jesus’ name, they have preached deliverance to the captives, the recovery of sight to the blind, they have given new life to the broken hearted, and they have set at liberty those who are bruised. They have faithfully proclaimed in word and deed the Gospel of the Kingdom of God.” We – together with all the faithful on earth – are Christ’s mind, heart, hands, lips, and feet in a world that is searching, thirsting, and desperate.
