Junior Church Prayer
May God bless your time in Junior Church this morning as you go to discover the good news and the joy of Jesus.

All: May Jesus fill your hearts with love

Collect

Most merciful God, who by the death and resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ delivered and saved the world: grant that by faith in him who suffered on the cross we may triumph in the power of his victory; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

Amen

Alternative Collect

Gracious Father, you gave up your Son out of love for the world: lead us to ponder the mysteries of his passion, that we may know eternal peace through the shedding of our Saviour’s blood, Jesus Christ our Lord.                                                                            Amen

For our schools: We pray this week especially for Barnwell School, for the children, their families, the teachers and all school staff, that our schools may be places of safety and respect, that they may find fulfilment in both learning and teaching. We also pray for our toddler group and for Bridge Builders and the work they do in schools including the REach project.

Please pray for the newly baptised

We remember the sick and the housebound who are listed by name in our prayer list and all those we know and love.

We pray for the souls of those departed this life.

We also pray for the Christian Police Association; the Living Room; the Haven and Shephall Children’s Center.

Let us include in our prayers this week, Woodlands View and all nursing homes, all who live there and all who work there.
