You’re Welcome Here

A Blessing for Wynnum Baptist Church

Father, You have placed us here in this beautiful Bayside community,
calling us to be Your ambassadors, entrusted with a message and ministry
to share the hope, forgiveness, restoration, and healing found in Jesus.
Equip and bless us, Lord, to carry this message boldly and creatively,
with hearts full of love and compassion, so that we may bring Your blessing to those around us.

In this part of the Bayside, may we be a bay of life for our community -
a place of safety, where the weary find rest,
a refuge for the hurting, and a harbour of peace for those seeking shelter from life’s storms.

Let our church be a community
where people encounter the still waters of Your peace,
are anchored in the unshakable truth of Your Word,
and are embraced by the steady harbour of Your love.
Make us a light, Lord, drawing others to You.
May we reflect Your promise to be our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in times of trouble.

Father, we thank You for the life we enjoy here on the Bayside.
We love this place You’ve planted us, and we pray You would use us
to bring Your life to this part of the bay.
May this Church become known as a community
where Your love, Your power, and Your presence transform lives -
a place where Jesus is known, loved, and honoured, our Saviour, King, and Friend.

Amen
