We stand against hunger
Against injustice
And we hope for a better world
Where everyone is housed
And fed
A world of abundance
Give us wisdom and courage
On our journey
Song “Take this moment”
You entrusted the earth to us
And we have destroyed it
The forests are burning
Animals are dying
Our world is sick
Forgive us
Restore our vision and help us to act bravely to save this precious world
We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Psalm 51
Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your unfailing love;
according to your great compassion
blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash away all my iniquity
and cleanse me from my sin.
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts today. For those who cant afford fuel, food or housing, for those on strike, those suffering in the heatwaves and fires, for Palestine and Gaza, Ukraine, Russia, Myanmar, Hong Kong, India, Myanmar, the Rohingyas, the Uyghurs, Belarus, Iran, the US, Afghanistan, the UK, our own country, doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, and pressing issues of climate change, for the millions of refugees, our own families, 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. Amen
Song “Why should the devil have all the good music”
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
