We stand against hunger
Against injustice
And we hope for a better world
Where everyone is housed
And fed
A world of abundance
Give us wisdom and courage
On our journey
Song “When I was up in Canada”
You entrusted the earth to us
And we have destroyed it
The forests are burning
Animals are dying
Our world is sick
Forgive us
Restore our vision and help us to act bravely to save this precious world
We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Psalm 50
“Consider this, you who forget God,
or I will tear you to pieces, with no one to rescue you:
23 Those who sacrifice thank offerings honour me,
and to the blameless I will show my salvation.”
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts today. For Afghans, especially the women, for Syria, Hong Kong, Belarus, Ethiopia, Yemen, Gaza, our burning world and those dealing with the fires, for politicians to act on climate change, for all with Covid today and their families, doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, for the many refugees, our country, our families and friends and ourselves. Spirit of the Living God be present with us. Let your angels be beside us at this time. In Jesus Name we pray. N
Song “Outlaw” an outlaw”
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
