Prayers for this week

Collect for today

Lord God
for the sake of the joy that lay ahead of him
your Son endured the cross
and accepted the shame:
give us grace to bear our sufferings
and bring us to the glory
that shall be revealed;
through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God for ever and ever. Amen.


Let us pray:

Fill us, O Christ, with your own compassion for the needy multitudes in the world around us; and use us now, as you commanded your disciples of old, as your willing instruments to minister to their needs in all the ways in which you shall guide and direct us.

Summon and send us, O Christ, to proclaim your Gospel in word and deed: and give us grace that, like your servant Bartholomew, we may truly believe what we preach and faithfully live what we believe.

Give grace, O Lord, to all who are waiting for transplants of organs. Keep their hope alive and their faith strong, and comfort all who mourn the loss of loved ones whose organs were given to assist those in need. Give skill, compassion and integrity to all medical personnel involved with organ and human tissue transplants.

Pour down, O Lord, your wisdom on all who study and all who teach in the College of the Transfiguration and in other ordination training programmes. Give them the grace like your servant St Augustine of Hippo to be open to your Spirit that leads us into all truth.


Prayer for Africa

God bless Africa,
guard our children,
guide our leaders
and give us peace,
for Jesus Christ's sake,
Amen.
