Text Box: PRAYER & READINGS

 

 

Jesus said, “but whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your father who sees in secret will reward you” Matthew 6.6

 

Please use this prayer list to pray daily for the different aspects of our mission at All Saints.

 

Before praying…

Holy Spirit, giver of light and life, impart to us thoughts greater than our thoughts, and prayers better than our prayers and powers better than our powers. That we may spend and be spent in the ways of love and goodness, after the perfect image of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Prayer for the Church

Guide and direct, O Lord, the minds of all who work for the reshaping of the Church of our time. Restore our faith and vision. Renew or energise and love. Revive your people to new life and power. So may we live and speak for Christ before this world he came to save, and ever advance his kingdom, for his honour and glory.

 

Diocesan Vision for Action Prayer

Almighty God and heavenly Father, open our eyes to see you at work in our world: grant us wisdom in using our gifts, grace to enliven our churches, and courage to transform our communities. By your Holy Spirit, equip us for the challenge ahead, excite us to follow your vision and empower us in witness and service. To you be the glory through Jesus our Saviour and mighty Redeemer.
