Pray with us today.

Holy and unfathomable God, Blessed Trinity, by your grace you have called your people to be a holy nation, a royal priesthood. Draw us more deeply into the Paschal mystery of the death and resurrection of Jesus, our Great High Priest, that our intercessory prayers for the world and all its people may be obedient to your divine will.

May the worship, fellowship and service of the Church faithfully proclaim the story of your redemptive purposes from the beginning of creation. Through our lives and by our prayers may your kingdom come, and all things be gathered into Christ. Amen.

David Chapman, Chair, Bedfordshire, Essex and Hertfordshire District

Pray with us today.

Loving God, In all the stories that we tell of our yesterdays, remind us that your grace was always sufficient. In all that we face today, remind us each step of the way that your grace is always sufficient. In all that our tomorrows will bring, reassure us that your grace will always be sufficient. In the familiar and in the unexpected; in the predictable and in the unknown; in the welcome and in the unwelcome; may we look for your grace, see your power perfected in our weakness, and go on our way rejoicing. Amen.

Pray with us today.

Creator God, in Jesus you embrace all of our human condition. In him, you weep with us, lament with us and strive with us for a world of righteousness and justice. We grieve with communities, families and individuals in the beautiful city of London who are afflicted by violence, who mourn for those lost to its effects, and who yearn and cry out for a better future. Send your Holy Spirit afresh upon us we pray – make us channels of peace; renew in us Christ’s work of reconciliation; give us the wisdom to know what makes for healing, and to give our lives for it in his name. Inspire us to plant and to nurture your seeds of hope, that your grace might flow in abundance and all your children know the freedom which is your promise and your gift in Christ. Amen.

Pray with us today.

Loving Christ, source of all truth and restorer of tunefulness, I have accepted a place in your choir, but spoiled its harmony by my pride. I have known your love song, but remained impervious to its transforming beauty. I have learned the music of your graceful story, but hindered the performance by my selfishness.

Forgive me.

Make me tender-hearted, that the power of your music might change me; make me modest, that I might humbly sing the part you give me; make me generous, that others might hear your choral symphonies. Loving Christ, source of all truth and restorer of tunefulness, sing through me, I pray. Amen.

Pray with us today.

Hope does not disappoint: Spes non confundit (Romans 5:5) Let us pray for all Pilgrims of Hope

What do we sing? Alleluia! When do we sing it?

Beaten Fastened to the stocks Yet, singing hymns to God at midnight (Acts 16:22)

Thank God we arrived here But the door is firmly shut And we are at the end of our tether

Jesus Christ, you proclaimed The jubilee year of the Lord Liberty to the oppressed (Luke 4:18-20)

You said you are the door (John 10:9-16) We rejoice and sing for joy as A door shall be opened to the excluded (Luke 6:22)

You blessed the poor of the earth Bring it on, Lord: an earthquake Shaking the foundations And ushering in your kingdom

When do we want it? Now(!) and forever. Amen.

Reynaldo Ferreira Leão Neto (Léo), General Secretary, World Methodist Council

Pray with us today.

Creative and radiant God, your strong and sure light is never overcome by darkness. May it be so in this our time.

Jesus Christ, the Light of the World, in your mercy and grace you surprisingly said to us, “You are the light of the world.” May it be so in this our time.

Spirit of light and love, kindle in us fresh urgency to love and serve the human family, to be amazed by creation and to care for it well, to pursue justice and offer mercy, to rejoice in receiving and sharing grace.

In confidence and hope, we pray. Amen.

Hope Morgan Ward, UMC Council of Bishops

Pray with us today.

God, who changes not, we trust in you for our todays and tomorrows. We pray for those with responsibility for making key decisions that might change the direction of world or local events. We pray for those affected by the decisions of others, but who feel powerless in the face of forces of change. We commend to you the decisions that have to be made in your Church, and those charged with making them. Take our gifts and talents, voices and musical worship, Lord, and use them we pray in the service of your kingdom. Amen.

John Morton, supernumary presbyter, Kendal Circuit

Pray with us today.

You, Lord, as the author of the story of all of creation, down to each individual walking on Earth, sing so gently over us, pouring your adoration, peace and assurance into our hearts and minds. Lord, may the stories and songs of our circumstances, locations, relationship with you and with others find crescendo and ultimately, resolution. Lord, put songs in our hearts that are meant for being shared and alternate melodies to draw us into greater communion, fellowship and relationship with others. In the ultimate storyteller’s name we ask and sing, Amen.
