Below is the prayer that was said during the team's Blessing of the Bicycles at Trinity Cathedral in Phoenix last week. I offer it with hopes for a safe ride for all of AIDS LifeCycle's 3,000 riders and roadies this week.
℣ The Lord knows our going out and our coming in;
℟ From this time forth and forevermore.
O Lord, our lives are in your hand:
Bless these your children at home and on the road and wherever they may be;
Ride with them along the way;
Fill their trip abundantly with many blessings;
Keep them safe, and their bicycles whole;
Empower them with your love that they may be a blessing to all those they encounter;
May your mercy, grace and love shine upon their every path;
And the blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit be upon you and remain with you always. Amen.
Prayer provided by Reverend Craig Bustrin of Trinity Cathedral, Episcopal Diocese of Arizona.
