Our new altar cloth for Pentecost 🔥 ✝️🙌
Generous God, as we celebrate today, we ask you to bless us and fill us with your Holy Spirit:
🔥
We thank you for the power of your Holy Spirit and ask that we may be strengthened to serve you better.
We thank you for the wisdom of your Holy Spirit and ask you to make us wise to understand your will.
We thank you for the peace of your Holy Spirit, and ask you to keep us confident of your love wherever you call us.
We thank you for the healing of your Holy Spirit and ask you to bring reconciliation and wholeness where there is division, sickness and sorrow.
We thank you for the gifts of your Holy Spirit and ask you to equip us for the work which you have given us.
We thank you for the fruit of your Holy Spirit and ask you to reveal in our lives — and through our lives— the love of Jesus.
We thank you for the breath of your Holy Spirit, given to us by the risen Lord and ask you to keep the whole Church, living and departed, in the joy of eternal life.
Generous God,
you sent your Holy Spirit upon your Messiah at the river Jordan,
and upon the disciples in the upper room:
in your mercy fill us with your Spirit,
hear our prayer,
and make us one in heart and mind
to serve you with joy for ever.
Amen.
