The Grace     Prayers: Prayer of Adoration Lord enthroned in the heavens, we declare our praises unto You as the Great and Glorious One who reigns upon high over us all. We praise You as the eternal one, who is unchanging in every age and beyond the ages. We praise You as the Son who taught us and died for us, living the life of man, showing us all the glories of how to live. We praise You as the Holy Spirit alive in our hearts, the constant presence of God with us, for You are the God of us personally, as well as the God in the glory of heaven. Praise be unto You, our glorious God, Father Son and Holy Spirit. Amen Prayer of Thanksgiving Gracious God we give our thanks for all that You have given us. We thank You for the glories of the summer, the bright colours and light, the promise of harvest’s bounty, and the joy of feeling the sun warm us. We thank You for the gifts You give us as Our Saviour, the forgiveness of sins, the guidance to make our lives better, and the help to endure all the things this imperfect world can throw at us. We give thanks for the hope we have to come, of eternal life in heaven with our God and all the saints who have gone before us, our dear friends and the millions of Christians of the past. Thanks be unto You, Our most generous God, Amen. Prayer of Confession Forgiving Lord, we come before You to make our confession of our sins. Lord, we have strayed from the paths of Righteousness into the ways of wickedness. We have not done as we ought, instead rushing headlong into the ways of sin and wrongdoing. We have acted against Your Laws, and failed to do those things that would have helped others. We have been slow to praise You, and swift to complain when the ways of this world turn against us. Lord God, we ask You to Forgive our sins. We know, that when we are truly sorry for our sins, you say to us, “Our sins are forgiven”. We say Lord, God, thank you for forgiving us, and we ask You to aid us in these coming days to do better than we have before. Thanks be to You Our God, Amen. Lord’s Prayer Our Father, who art in Heaven Hallowed be Thy Name Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done On Earth as it is in Heaven Give us this day, our daily bread And forgive us our Trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil For Thine is the Kingdom, The Power and the Glory Forever and Ever Amen Prayers of Intercession Lord Our God, We Pray For The World We pray for the continued roll out of the Vaccine, for all those who are working to help the afflicted and for the end of these time of restrictions, fear and struggle. We Pray For Those Living In Places Stricken By War and Disaster, May They Know Help We Pray for O Christian Brethren At Home And Abroad, May Their Numbers Increase And Sorrows Decrease, especially those persecuted. We Pray For All Who Struggle With Illness, Grief, And Difficulty, May They Know Your Comforts. We Pray For All Who Are Unable To See The Good In Their Lives, May Their Eyes Be Opened. We Pray For Our Nation and Royal Family, Lord, Guard and Guide All Who Dwell In These Lands. We Pray For Ourselves In Our Difficulties, May We Come To Know The Joys Of Our Lives. All These We Ask In Jesu’s Name, Amen
