“Go into the world filled with grace and generosity. Rejoice in the profusion [that is, the abundance] of creation and make peace. Be more than fair, showing the tender compassion of God who created and redeemed you. Amen.”
Gill Ambrose in “The Sending Out Prayer” in Prayer and Prayer Activities: For Worship with Adults, Children and All Ages (London: Canterbury Press, 2013) 49.
