Psalm 139.14
I thank you that I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Marvellous are your works, my soul knows well.’

Living, loving God, we thank you that we are each fearfully and wonderfully made.
As we celebrate the gift and wonder of human gender and sexuality, we thank you for the way in these allow us to express who you have created us to be.
We pray that all may know the grace of your love, particularly those who know the trials, pain and stigma of being made ‘other’ by society.
Give us courage to speak of your fierce love and protection for all.

Amen.
