FOR YOUR PRAYERS:
- God our Father, we thank you for ministry in our parish
over many years; for faithful laity and clergy alike. At this
time we pray for our parish - for churchwardens, PCC,
all who worship week by week and the wider community.
- Lord God, you are worthy of every gift from those who
receive the gifts you give. Give us the courage to face
the cost of your work here. Grant that every member of
the church may truly and humbly serve you; make us
alive to the needs of the community and help us to share
each other’s joys and burdens. All things come from you,
and of your own do we give you.
- We give thanks for the release of the 33 miners in
Chile; we pray for their continued recovery to full health
and well-being as they are restored to their families.
