Bishop's 2022 Appeal: Prayers

Bishop Deon Johnson shares this prayer (in two versions) to use during our appeal. We encourage parishes to include the prayer in your weekly services. We encourage individuals to pray this prayer as you consider your gift to support Diocesan ministry.


Holy and loving God,
You call your people to a vision of the world transformed;
Help us, like Jesus, to give of ourselves for the sake of others,
Holy and loving God, open our hands and hearts
to the mission and ministry of the Bishop’s Annual Appeal.
Strengthen our resolve to be like Your Son, Jesus Christ,
to give of ourselves in every moment of our lives. Amen.


Holy and loving God,
You call your people to a vision of the world transformed;
Help us, like Jesus, to give of ourselves for the sake of others,
To see the hungry and feed them,
To walk with the lame and cure them,
To sit with the sick and heal them,
To uphold the discouraged and renew them,
To soothe the sorrowful and revive them,
To shelter the oppressed and embolden them.
Holy and loving God, open our hands and hearts
to the mission and ministry of the Bishop’s Annual Appeal.
Strengthen our resolve to be like Your Son, Jesus Christ,
to give of ourselves in every moment of our lives. Amen.

Welcome from Our Bishop Find a Church Diocesan Calendar Clergy Resources

We believe in a loving, life-giving and liberating God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe God loves you -- no exceptions!

We invite you to be a part of our faith journey.

The Rt. Rev. Deon K. Johnson is the leader of our diocese. He was elected as our bishop on Nov. 23, 2019, and ordained on June 13, 2020, at Christ Church Cathedral in St. Louis.

Learn More

Approximately 10,000 people throughout Eastern and Central Missouri find their faith home with us. About three-quarters of our members are in the metro St. Louis area, but our diocese reaches much farther than St. Louis. You will find more than 40 Episcopal churches, missions and faith communities as far north as Kirksville, as far west as Columbia, and as far south as Poplar Bluff (and many points in between).

If you are looking for a church home or a just a faith community to visit, we invite you to explore The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri.
