Leader: No one has ever seen God
People: If we love one another, God lives in us and his love is perfected in us.
Opening Prayer (Unison) – Everlasting God: You have revealed yourself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and live and reign in the perfect unity of love. Grant that we may always hold firmly and joyfully to this faith, and living in praise of your divine majesty, may finally be one in you; who are three persons in one God, now and forever. Amen.
