As a ministry leader, I will, to the best of my ability, commit to the following:
Scripture: Proverbs 11:13
"A gossip betrays a confidence,
but a trustworthy person keeps a secret."

Prayer for Leaders
In these moments of silence we remember our calling to confidentiality and trust. We close our hands into fists, holding people’s confidence.
<fisted hands>
God, we confess that it’s difficult to maintain confidentiality. Sometimes we violate it in big ways and small ways, sometimes intentionally and sometimes unintentionally. Our fisted hands remind us that we as leaders are called to hold and maintain high levels of trust.
<pause>
Help us, O God, to be leaders with integrity who hold safe the confidence of the people you have entrusted to us. Give us wisdom to recognize situations that require intervention. Give us kind and compassionate hearts that listen, protect, and seek wholeness and restoration through Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
