PRAYER

Let us Pray
God,
in every time and season,
you are teaching us more
about ourselves and about you.

May we always be open
to discovering new ways of seeing,
and new ways of serving you, God of all the ages.

May we know that nothing is hidden from you,
and that nothing is foreign.
You know and embrace the ordinary times
and the extraordinary times.
And what is more,
you lead us through whatever we face.

God,
in the midst of chaos and fear,
may we see you quietly at work
and calling us to follow.
May we lighten one another’s burden
however we can:
by connecting,
by listening,
by being the neighbours you invite us to be.
May we bear one another’s burdens
and share one another’s grief.
And, in time, may we rejoice together in your love.

Lord, we may not know the way ahead,
but we do know that you are with us
and will never leave us.
May that assurance help us
to face all that we must face,
and strengthen us to continue to step out in faith,
holding the Christ light for one another,
knowing that you are with us
and you go before us always.
Hear us now as a family we pray:

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours,
now and for ever.
Amen.
