Just a reminder that St Lawrence is open for people to visit to pray, to simply sit in the peace and quiet, it's blessedly cool compared to the heat of ourtside at the moment.

Open for visitors, Monday and Wednesday-Saturday from 10am-3pm and open on Tuesday's at 2pm for the Community Larder.

Day 11 - Pentecost - The Spirit of Power ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would come afresh, filling us with God’s love and drawing our Five closer to Him.

Almighty God,
Your ascended Son has sent us into the world to preach the good news of Your kingdom: inspire us with Your Spirit and fill our hearts with the fire of Your love, that all who hear Your Word may be drawn to You, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen 🙏

Day 10 - The Spirit Through Generations ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would pour out faith across every generation and draw our Five into God’s family.

We ask that You send the Holy Spirit as a holy offering to the holy church.
As we assemble, give to all the saints the fullness of the Holy Spirit for the confirmation of true faith so that we may praise and glorify You through Your Son, Jesus Christ, through whom glory and honour to the Father and the Son with the Holy Spirit in Your holy church are Yours now and forever!

Amen 🙏

[Hippolytus of Rome, ca. 170–ca. 235]

Day 9 - The Spirit of Evangelism ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would help us respond to God’s prompting and become faithful witnesses to our Five.

Lord,
grant that I may always allow myself to be guided by You,
always follow Your plans, and perfectly accomplish Your Holy Will.
Help me respond to the slightest prompting of Your Grace,
so that I may be Your trustworthy instrument for Your honour.
May Your Will be done in time and in eternity by me, in me, and through me.

Amen 🙏

[St Teresa of Avila, 1515–1582]

Day 8 - The Spirit of Empowerment ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would empower us to reflect Christ’s love and hope to our Five.

We beseech thee, Master, to be our helper and protector.
Save the afflicted among us; have mercy on the lowly; raise up the fallen; appear to the needy; heal the ungodly; restore the wanderers of Thy people; feed the hungry; ransom our prisoners; raise up the sick; comfort the faint-hearted.

Amen 🙏

[Clement of Rome, 1st Century]
