As part of our
liturgy at Annual Council 2015, each delegation wrote a prayer for their
parish. We are sharing these prayers each week in the eNews so that we
all can support one another in the upcoming year.
Lord, raise up in your church more leaders after your own heart to guide us with courage and wisdom. Give your church joy in spirit, and guide us in your ministry. Grant us your peace. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Emmanuel, Jenkins Bridge
O Lord, the giver of all good things. We give you thanks for your many blessings you have showered upon Emmanuel Church. That we, in turn, have been able to be a blessing to our parish and its community. We ask that you bless us with your continuous grace in this coming year. May prosperity of faith and spirit enrich our church members and leadership. That we may be a blessing to others this coming year. This we ask in Christ's name. Amen.
