Collect for Christ the King
(26 November)
Eternal Father,
whose Son Jesus Christ ascended to the throne of heaven
that he might rule over all things as Lord and King:
keep the Church in the unity of the Spirit
and in the bond of peace,
and bring the whole created order to worship at his feet;
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.

Fundraising for St John's
St John's is fundraising for a new integrated heating and lighting system. This is not inexpensive, so if you can
help by reviewing your regular giving or through a one-off donation we would be very grateful. We are looking
to match-fund for applications to trusts to cover the cost.

Holy Trinity is open for private prayer on Mondays from 4.00 to 6.00 p.m.

Prayer
|
May God give wisdom and courage
to those who work for peace.
We pray that their efforts may be blessed,
that they may bring an end to violence
and solace and stability to suffering peoples.
May the gift of peace permeate all troubled souls,
convert all who live by violence
and comfort all children who live in menacing situations,
that the freedom to enjoy life and grow in safety may be theirs.
And may each one of us know
peace of mind and heart,
peace of body and spirit,
peace of community and world.
Holy Spirit of Peace, grant our prayer.
(Sr Bridgetta Rooney/CAFOD)
