Sunday 3 May 2020 

Reading: Matthew 16:24-28
Reading: John 10:7-18
Prayer
Lord, we are those who journey.
And who find that journey hard today.
We are those who journey.
And we long to find our hope renewed.
Lord in your mercy,
Hear our prayer.
 
Lord, whether in our own company or with companions beside us,
We journey on.
Whether sure, or unsure, as to our journey’s end,
Come beside us through the risen Lord.
Lord in your mercy,
Hear our prayer.
 
Lord, we pray for others;
For carers of the living and of the dying;
For the bereaved and for the anxious;
For those fearing loss of work and of business.
 
Lord, we pray for scientists and researchers;
For those seeking to understand the challenge we face;
For those creating potential vaccines;
For those advising decision-makers.
 
Lord, we pray for those who shape our common life:
In local Councils and in National Government.
Grant to them wisdom, compassion and understanding.
Lord, we pray for your Kingdom to come.
And for your will to be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
Lord in your mercy,
Hear our prayer.
Amen.

Reflections (see videos to the right)


Prayer
When the wind blows, Lord,
may your arms shelter me.
When the rain falls,
may your arms cover me.
When the storm rages,
may your arms protect me.
When the waters rise,
may your arms support me.
When the flood is fierce,
may your arms encircle me.
When all seems swept away,
may your arms hold me fast.
Whatever I may have to face, Lord,
whatever the days ahead may bring,
may I know your arms around me,
upon me,
beneath me,
cradling me now and for evermore
in your everlasting love.
Amen.
 
Closing Prayer
 
May the adventure, the joy and the peace
of knowing Jesus, go with us all
and may his grace, the love of God,
and the Companionship of the Holy Spirit
be with us, this day and always.
Amen
