Let us pray

Heavenly Father, when we look round and see what is happening around us and in the world generally we really appreciate Your love for us by protecting us from all evils and bringing us back here again together to praise and worship You. Thank You Father for this undying love and favour of being alive to worship You.

Lord meet us in The Silence and hear our prayers.

Holy Lord, bless all the Churches and Clergies all over the world and let them continue their good Christian Work as good example to their Congregations. We pray at this time for our Volunteer Clergies, Sarah, Eckart and all those who keep our worships going at St Peter’s  as we are still looking for the right Clergy for our  Church to carry on where Julia has finished. We pray to You Lord to choose the very best Replacement Clergy for our Church for continuous peace, friendship  diversity and harmony amongst the Congregations. We also ask that You bless all those who volunteer their time and energy for the smooth running of our worship especially during this time of pandemic lockdown.

Lord meet us in the Silence and hear our prayers.

God of all wisdoms we ask that You direct all the World Leaders and give them the right wisdom for leading their Subjects in the right way with equality and fairness while remembering that All Lives Matter.

We pray for all those countries still fighting wars and in one conflict or the other including Ethiopia and Afghanistan that You bring back peace and harmony to their people’s lives. We also pray that You give the Leaders the spirit of compromise in solving their disputes for lasting peace.

Lord meet us in the Silence and hear our prayers.

Loving God, bless our Community and let us continue to live in peace and harmony free of all crimes and evils.

We pray for our Key Workers, the NHS Workers, Teachers, and Carers and all Environmental Workers. We pray for the sick, lonely and the unemployed that You heal, be their companion and provide the right jobs for them respectively.

We also ask that You direct our Youths that they grow in the way you would like them to grow, free of crimes and mischieves and let them be content in whatever condition they find themselves while continuing to respect their parents and guardians.

Lord meet us in the Silence and hear our prayers.

Comforting Lord, we pray for those resently departed this world and those who mourn them that You give them the fortitude to bear their loss.

We also remember those whose anniversaries fall at this time including Jesse Moses.

Eternal Rest Grant Unto Them Oh Lord and May Thy Light Perpectual Shine Upon Them.

Lord guide our footsteps as we start a new week today and let us come back next week to praise Your Name.

Merciful Father, Accept These Prayers, for the sake of Your Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.
