PRAYER OF THE DAY

Let us pray.

God of mercy, we no longer look for Jesus among the dead,
for he is alive and has become the Lord of life.
Increase in our minds and hearts the risen life we share with Christ, and help us to grow as your people

toward the fullness of eternal life with you, through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
