Almighty God, whose only Son has opened
for us a new and living way into your presence:
give us pure hearts and steadfast wills to
worship you in spirit and in truth; 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.
Post Communion Prayer
Lord God, the source of truth and love,
keep us faithful to the apostles’ teaching and
fellowship, united in prayer and the breaking of
bread, and one in joy and simplicity of heart,
in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
Richard Spicer,
our Trainee Reader will be starting a
placement at St Nicholas Kenilworth during
September and most of October as part of his
training. Please hold him in your prayers during
this time. We shall miss him from our
fellowship.
Songs of Praise
On the 19th September we will be having
a Songs of Praise service at 6.00pm which Andrew
Price has offered to play for. Please come along
and choose your favourite hymns and songs and
tell us why they are your favourites. If you
want to take part can you let Jo know so we can
put them into an Order of Service
God of love and mercy, be with all who are
suffering, from hunger, drought, disaster,
oppression and fear for tomorrow. May they know
that you are the God of Love and hold us all in
the palm of your hand.
One of the
ways to build community is for the Church to respond to people who need support,
such as those who have been bereaved, come out
of hospital, had babies or anything else, by
providing meals.
Jo would like to have a list of people
who would be willing to prepare a couple more
portions of their meal and deliver it to the
person in need.
If you are interested, please speak to
her.

who has skills in music or craftwork, which
could be used with the children.
