Today, on #RogationSunday we ask for God's blessing on the land, our work and in our lives.
Creator God
Today we give thanks for our beautiful and fruitful world.
We ask for Your continued blessing on:
farmers as well as their crops and livestock,
gardens and their produce,
water sources and the life within it
β all that the earth provides for our well-being.
Wherever we work and whatever our role;
we ask You to bless us as we labour each day.
Please give to us all things we need for our daily lives;
help us to share resources equitably so there is enough for everyone.
Please bless our communities and all who live within them;
thinking particularly of those who are struggling at this time.
Bless our common life together,
and empower us to love all each one of our neighbours.
As we labour to care for this earth and our communities,
may we also labour on our own hearts.
Prune us Lord so that we may be faithful in our service,
obedient to Your will and fruitful to Your glory.
Amen

THE SIXTH SUNDAY OF EASTER
Christian Aid Week begins.
God of the impossible, we pray for justice, peace and reconciliation. And when the challenges seem too many, remind us of your resurrection power, and the miracles of your love that happen whenever injustice is dismantled and rebuilt with peace. Help us to hope that the impossible can happen and live as if it might do so today. Amen.
(Prayer from Christian Aid)
