A Prayer for Passiontide

Father in heaven, as your people prepare once more to follow the events of Good Friday and Easter, may we be led by your Holy Spirit to deeper insights into your love and saving grace; that we may love you more and serve you better, for the sake of Him who died for us and rose again, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

A Prayer for Easter

Lord Jesus Christ

the Way, the Truth, and the Life;

let us not stray from you the Way, nor distrust you,

the Truth, nor rest in any other but you, the Life;

teach us by your Holy Spirit what to believe, what to do

and where to take our rest through

Jesus Christ our Lord Amen

A Prayer for Peace

O God, whose will is to fold both heaven and earth

in a single peace; let the design of your great love

lighten upon the waste of our wraths and sorrows;

and give peace to our Church, peace among nations,

peace in our homes, and peace in our hearts through

Jesus Church our Lord. Amen

A Prayer for Pentecost

O Lord God, heavenly Father, we beseech thee, let thy Holy Spirit dwell in us, that he may enlighten and lead us into all truth, and evermore defend us from all adversities: through Jesus Christ our Lord. Ame
