Spirit of God
You are the breath of creation
The wind of change
Speak through my heart, my mind, my actions
Song “Holy Spirit”
Loving God
Come into my confused and troubled life
And send your Spirit
To work in me
To realign me
So that I may know
You in my life
Your joy, your peace, your Shalom
We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Reading Psalm 44
All this has come upon us, but we have not forgotten You,
And we have not dealt falsely with Your covenant.
18 Our heart has not turned back,
And our steps have not deviated from Your way,
19 Yet You have crushed us in a place of jackals
And covered us with deep darkness.
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts today. For Afghanistan, especially the women, our burning world and those dealing with the fires, for politicians to act on climate change, for all with covid today and their families, doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, for the many refugees, our country, our families and friends and ourselves…Spirit of the Living God present with us now enter our bodies, minds and spirits and heal us of all that harms us. Let your angels be beside us at this time. In Jesus Name we pray.
Song “Let it rain”
This is the day that God has made
I will rejoice and be glad in it
I will not offer to God
Offerings that cost me nothing
I will go in Peace
To love and serve the Lord
Amen
