To the Church in France

I Corinthians 1:2-9
To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours:

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I always thank God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus.  For in him you have been enriched in every way—in all your speaking and in all your knowledge— because our testimony about Christ was confirmed in you.  Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed.  He will keep you strong to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.  God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.

Our Father,
Thank you for your grace given to us by Jesus Christ our Lord.  You have enriched us in every way.  All that we have is because of you.  Thank you Holy Spirit for giving us the words to say and the ability to know God.  As we wait for Christ to return, let us use all the spiritual gift that you have given us, so that the world around us will know of You.  Keep us strong to the end, so that we will be blameless on the day of our Lord. 
Thank you for the fellowship we have with your Son and our Savior Jesus Christ who has been faithful and always will be, for He is the same yesterday, today and forever.  Thank you for each person who you have set apart in Christ Jesus, You have called us to be holy and united for you have made us one body.  Thank you for the Church your bride for Christ. 
 I pray all this in the name of the Son, Jesus Christ.
 Amen
