For your prayers this week

  • Creator God, we see the vastness of the universe and the wonder of the heavens. Be with all scientists and astronomers as they explore the atmosphere around us. May we reduce harmful emissions of polluting gases and combat human and cultural degradation. O God, help us to share in your love for the whole of Creation.
  • For our Diocesan Link in Sudan and for The Holy Land:
    Lord Jesus, You came that the world might know the peace that You have experienced with the Father eternally. Yet, You taught us that in this life there will be wars and rumors of wars. Nations will rise against nations as violence works itself out in the world. However, through You, the world may be saved. O Lord, send Your spirit into the hearts of all men, that the world might know true peace through Your abundant mercy. Amen.
  • In Skipton we pray for all who live or work on Ghyll Way, Millenium Road, Enterprise Way, & Keighley Road.
  • We pray for all involved in the stories we have seen or heard on the news this week.
  • We pray for all who are ill, in body mind or spirit.
  • We pray for all who have died, and for their bereaved family and friends.
And our prayer for growth:

God of Mission,
who alone brings growth to your Church,
Send your Holy Spirit to give
Vision to our planning,
Wisdom to our actions,
And power to our witness.
Help your church to grow in numbers,
In spiritual commitment to you,,
And in service to our local community,
Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
