Prayers

Take a moment to listen to the still small voice of God within the bustle of the day which has begun. Find a quiet place where you can enjoy precious moments of peace in God's presence. Sit quietly and listen to the sounds of the world around you, both outside and in the place where you are. Breathe slowly and rest in God's presence...

Prayers for this week

Take a moment to listen to the still small voice of God within the bustle of the day which has begun. Find a quiet place where you can enjoy precious moments of peace in God's presence. Sit quietly and listen to the sounds of the world around you, both outside and in the place where you are. Breathe slowly and rest in God's presence......

Know that as you journey through this day, that you have a helper, a source of strength and comfort, the reassurance that we are never further from God than a whisper.

 

 

PRAYERS FOR DECEMBER 14TH 2025

Lord,
As we hear of those experiencing storms buffeting coasts and lands, typhoons and flooding, earthquakes and hurricanes, we pray for: those who feel there is little hope in their lives and whose hearts feel broken and empty;
those overwhelmed by their inner storms and those buffeted by the incessant demands of daily life;
those burdened by too much responsibility and those afraid of how tired they are.
We pray too for those coping with the aftermath of Storm Bram especially those whose homes and premises have been flooded and for all those in the emergency services, constantly facing difficult and dangerous situations.

We pray for those who live in places of conflict and violence: We remember especially the people of Thailand and Cambodia; the people of Ukraine surrounded by so much uncertainty; and the European leaders seeking unity and initiatives to end the suffering of so many.
We pray for  the people of Sudan amidst so much brutality; for the people of Gaza and all those in refugee camps around the world desperate for the waters of aid to stream into the deserts of their misery.

We pray for young people coming to the end of another university, college or school term:
For those trying to cope with the pressure of assignments and work;
For those struggling emotionally and mentally with environments they find difficult;
For those endangered by social media; For those being bullied or exploited;
and for those who go home to places of tension or sadness or hardship.
We pray for teachers and all who share the responsibility of guiding and equipping children and students with knowledge and confidence.


We pray our churches will be places of warmth and welcome for those whose journey through Advent is marred by ill health;
for those struggling on the streets of our towns and cities; for those who are in debt or plagued by addiction;
or those who are alone or dreading Christmas Day.

And we pray for one another and for ourselves That we may be open to the needs of others; Aware of the needs of our own hearts; And follow in the footsteps of those who have journeyed to the crib before us
With integrity, humility and joy.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
