‘Oh, come let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker’ – Psalm 95:6
Morning Prayer is back at 10.00 am every Wednesday – a Book of Common Prayer Said Service in the Lady Chapel
A Home Prayer Group meets every month for informal study of bible passages and to pray together for the world and for the local community of Coulsdon – via Zoom.
If you have a prayer request or would like more information, please do get in touch with Esther at St Andrew’s Vicar or call 0203 620 1885.
- You don’t have to know any special prayers if you want to pray –
in fact, words can often get in the way. Just picture Jesus, and then say what is in your heart, what you feel. - Not all prayers are answered in the way we might expect or desire, and we don’t always pray for God’s will to be done! Nevertheless, God hears every prayer.
Prayer this Week
Come summer with me, Lord; summer deep down in my soul;
restore my faith in summer’s time, in rest, in joy, in play, in you…
Summer in my heart, Lord, and dwell there as if time would never end,
as if all time were children’s time, eternal time when school is always out and joy is ever in…
Let others summer in my shade, Lord, and share whatever summer’s peace is mine to give, whatever summer’s light is mine to shed, whatever summer’s warmth is mine to share…
Good God of every season and every day this week, come summer with me, Lord, and let the child in my heart spend this summer in your love… Amen. (Fr. Austin Fleming)
. Amen.
