Evening Prayers June 4th 2020



Holy Spirit, breath of God

Breathe on us all gathered here

Guide us, strengthen us, console us

As we submit ourselves to your will

Song “Here Again”

The Lord is in this place

Come Holy Spirit, dry bones awaken

Meet us here again

We say the Lord's prayer in our own language.

Reading Acts 11v25-30

25 Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul, 26 and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. So for a whole year Barnabas and Saul met with the church and taught great numbers of people. The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.
27 During this time some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. 28 One of them, named Agabus, stood up and through the Spirit predicted that a severe famine would spread over the entire Roman world. (This happened during the reign of Claudius.) 29 The disciples, as each one was able, decided to provide helpfor the brothers and sisters living in Judea. 30 This they did, sending their gift to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.

Prayer 

We pray tonight for all those we know who need our help and prayers ….and the many others we carry in our hearts tonight. 

Spirit of the Living God present with us now enter their bodies, minds and spirits and heal them of all that harms them. Let your angels be beside them at this time. In Jesus Name we pray.  


Song “Establish the work of our hands”


Closing Responses

Night is falling
Gracious Spirit 
Guard our sleeping
Darkness soon will come 
Gracious Spirit 
Guard our sleeping
Now we go to rest
Gracious Spirit 
Guard our sleeping.
