A Prayer for Everyone to Arrive Safely for a Gathering
Loving Father, we look forward to this weekend with glad hearts. We thank You for the people who are coming, and for the joy of being together again.
Watch over each one who travels. Keep every road, every journey, and every mile in Your care. Bring them safely to us, healthy and whole, free from harm and worry.
Bless the hours we share. Fill our gathering with laughter, kindness, and peace. May we see Your goodness in one another and give thanks.
We trust them all to You, Lord. In Jesus' name, Amen.
When to Pray This
Pray this in the days before a gathering, or on the morning everyone sets out to travel. It is a good prayer to share with family and friends who are on their way.
A Verse to Hold On To
