Prayers

Take a moment to listen to the still small voice of God within the bustle of the day which has begun. Find a quiet place where you can enjoy precious moments of peace in God's presence. Sit quietly and listen to the sounds of the world around you, both outside and in the place where you are. Breathe slowly and rest in God's presence... You may find it helpful to listen to the Daily Prayers on the Pray as you Go website

Prayers for this week

Take a moment to listen to the still small voice of God within the bustle of the day which has begun. Find a quiet place where you can enjoy precious moments of peace in God's presence. Sit quietly and listen to the sounds of the world around you, both outside and in the place where you are. Breathe slowly and rest in God's presence......

Know that as you journey through this day, that you have a helper, a source of strength and comfort, the reassurance that we are never further from God than a whisper.

 

 

PRAYERS FOR MAY 3RD 2026

Lord, You have called us to live together in community sharing what we have and carrying each other’s burdens. May we walk faithfully where you lead us and may our actions show your love in the world. We pray for the small and big choices that lie ahead for us this week and ask that we would honour you in the ordinary things of life, knowing that you are with us always. We pray that you would surround all who are struggling or feeling alone with your presence and peace.

Lord, we bring to you the places in our world  where the darkness of war casts its shadows over people’s lives. We pray today for Ukraine, for the Middle East, for Gaza, for South Sudan and ask for just and lasting solutions to long-running conflict. Give us persistence in prayer, hope in believing that peace will come and trust in your promise that you make all things new.

Lord, you hold our lives in your hand. We pray for all who are in trouble, pain or distress.
In the quiet we name those we know who need to know your protection today.

(Silence)

Be close to all who suffer and surround them with tender care. May we, your Church, be a protecting space for those who are battered by life and a place of healing and hope in a troubled and divided world.

Lord, we bring to you the change and uncertainty that is all around: feelings of being left behind or unheard; high distrust of leaders; disconnection from politics; and a lack of faith in those who govern us. Save us from extremes and from too-easy answers to complex issues. Show us how we should respond to the anger that simmers in our society. Make us campaigners for a more just world and may we never disregard the voices of those on the margins. As elections approach in many areas of our nation, we pray for leadership that is unselfish and dedicated to the good of others.

Lord, may the beauty of your peace encircle us and fill our homes and our hearts
today and always.

Amen

.
