For morning Light
We humbly thank you
And offer our praise to you
Open our hearts and minds
And give us your presence
In our lives today
Song “Holy Spirit, Living breath of God”
Prayer for Gods help
Loving God
Come into my confused and troubled life
And send your Spirit
To work in me
To realign me
So that I may know
You in my life
Your joy, your peace, your Shalom
The Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Reading Acts 28
17 Three days later he called together the local Jewish leaders. When they had assembled, Paul said to them: “My brothers, although I have done nothing against our people or against the customs of our ancestors, I was arrested in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans. 18 They examined me and wanted to release me, because I was not guilty of any crime deserving death. 19 The Jews objected, so I was compelled to make an appeal to Caesar. I certainly did not intend to bring any charge against my own people. 20 For this reason I have asked to see you and talk with you. It is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.”
Our Prayers
We pray for people and situations we are concerned about including people making decisions about schools, the shooting of black people in the US, the chaotic weather, people in lockdown, desperate people crossing the sea in dinghies, continuing deaths from Covid 19, the ongoing unrest in Minnesota, Belarus, arrests in Hong Kong and Syria, Russian democracy, the rise of fascism, the government, the Rohinga Muslims, Muslims being persecuted in China, protection for key workers and adequate PPE, protection for Black and Asian people, for people on low or no incomes, for those with underlying health conditions and those over 60, care for those who are alone and those suffering with depression, protection for asylum seekers and refugees and ensuring that food is reaching the vulnerable and global warming.
May we not fail you. Amen
Closing Responses
This is the day that God has made
I will rejoice and be glad in it
I will not offer to God
Offerings that cost me nothing
I will go in Peace
To love and serve the Lord
Amen

我們母語的主禱文
閱讀法案28
17三天后，他召集了當地的猶太領導人。保羅聚會時，保羅對他們說：“我的兄弟們，儘管我對我們的人民或祖先的習俗沒有做任何事情，但我在耶路撒冷被捕，並移交給了羅馬人。 18他們檢查了我，並想釋放我，因為我沒有任何應受死刑的罪行。 19猶太人反對，所以我被迫向凱撒上訴。我當然不打算對我自己的人民提出任何指控。 20因此，我要求見你並與你交談。正是由於以色列的希望，我才被這個鏈條束縛住了。”
