“Who is Jesus?”
Almighty God
Our Creator and Guide, may we
accept Jesus who speaks in your
name, and serve you in
everything that we do and say.
Amen
God our Father, Help us to see your Son Jesus
in the face of each person we meet, even if they are really hard to get on with.
Amen
St John Plessington
Pray for us
Loving Father, help me
not to be afraid of what
others will think or say
about me when I stand up
for what is right
Amen
St John Plessington
Pray for us
Dear Jesus Help me to look for
you in others, even when I really feel like giving up.
Amen
St John Plessington

Lord, help me to be like you
in all the situations that I find myself in.
Amen
St John Plessington
Pray for us
God our Father,until the time of the printing press,people copied the Gospel,writing it by hand.Slowly the Gospel took shape- both on the pageand deep within themselves.I ask that the Gospel- the Good News of your love -may be written in menot with inkbut with the Spirit of God. Only then will I grow as a credible witnessof the wealth of your love.Day by day,as the pages of my own life turn over,remind methat you write my nameon the palm of your hand. I ask this prayer through Jesus,who is your Word,
living amongst us.
Amen.
Loving Father,
when all is uncertain
and we feel our weakness and helplessness,
give us the sense of Your presence,
Your love, and Your strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
in Your protecting love
and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry us,
for, living close to You,
we shall see Your hand,Your purpose, Your will through all things.
God our Father,
extend our horizons,
widen our vision,
and remind us how inter-connected we are
as your sons and daughters.
Breathe your Spirit into us
that we may live more truly
as brothers and sisters of one another
Amen
Lord, we ask you to open our eyesthat we may value and appreciate all people,recognising what we have in commonrather than focusingon what our differences might be.Inspire us to distinguishbetween what is importantand what is not,and open our minds and heartsthat we may always be people of good willwho bring life and joy to others. Amen.
