PRAYERS/REFLECTIONS FOR THE WEEK

At the beginning of the day spend a moment settling down, focussing on God, coming
deliberately into His presence with a thankful heart.
Our prayers are the rhythm which hold us together and gives us a focus.

OPENING PRAYER/REFLECTION
Peace be in this new day, peace of heart and mind.
Peace with the past, peace with the future.
Lord, today I choose you; to be Yours and known as Yours!
Lord, what shall we do together today? I offer you this day,
King Jesus, with all its opportunities and all its uncertainties.
In my plans, be Sovereign; in my fears, be my Comforter.
In my routine, be my Inspiration; in the uncertainty, be my Guide.
In temptation be close, and in everything be my Peace.
In all that happens, be present.

This week we are praying for –

Croydon.

London Mayor Elections to be held in May.

Local food banks as they see an increase in demand.

The conflicts in Ukraine, Israel, Gaza and The Middle East.

Those who are unwell, lonely, or experiencing loss and bereavement.

All those making daily decision whether to heat or eat during the current financial uncertainity.

The persecuted church around the world.

God, in your mercy,
Hear our prayer.

CLOSING PRAYER/REFLECTION
The Prince of Peace be mine this night,
in the Name of the Father and of the Son
and of the Holy Spirit.
AMEN
