JOIN TOGETHER WITH US AT ANY TIME DURING OUR DAILY PRAYER HOUR.
When asked how they should pray, Jesus taught his disciples a prayer for the well-being of the World, their community and their lives. A prayer asking God to meet their daily needs and a prayer for forgiveness for their wrong doings and for help in resisting the temptations of all sin and for their protection from danger....
The Lord's Prayer.
We invite and encourage you to say the Lord's prayer each day and what better way is there to bring us all together in a wonderful feeling of fellowship than to say this all-embracing prayer at any time during the course of the same hour each day, knowing that other members of our community are doing the very same?
It is not a Church Service and neither is it a club. In fact, it is not a public event at all. Just a wonderful way of praying to our Lord in the quiet of our own homes or wherever we may be in the World. You can join in wíth total privacy.
The hour is between 8pm and 9pm daily and please feel free to join us at any time during this hour and to add as many prayers as you wish.
A safely positioned, lighted candle can also give a feeling of greater closeness to God.
There is a downloadable and printable poster of the traditional version of The Lord`s Prayer for you to use to encourage others to join in during our Hour of Prayer. You might also wish to use your poster as a daily reminder.
If for any reason you miss the Prayer Hour, don't hesitate to pray later. It's never too late to pray and it's never too late to join our Daily Prayer Hour.
A PRAYER FOR JULY - FOR ISRAEL AND GAZA
The following two prayers for peace and hope, in the midst of the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict, are offered to our Lord by the Church of England. Please include them in your Prayer Hour this month as often as possible.
O God of all hope and peace, we bring to you the needs of our broken and hurting world.
Our hearts are breaking with images of lives lost and torn apart by grief in Israel and Palestine.
We pray for an end to violence and warfare so that the challenging work of rebuilding may begin.
Help us, O Lord, to affirm our common humanity so that in our differences we may build together for justice and peace.
In Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
O God, we pray for all the children of Abraham in Israel and Palestine and in every country of the world.
We pray for Muslims, Jews and Christians that we will draw on the best of our traditions to guide us away from words and acts of division and discrimination so that everyone may be free to live in safety.
Protect the vulnerable, strengthen the fearful and comfort the grieving.
In Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
