Prayer of Intercession: (This is included for Rev. Lisa since she will be praying the morning prayer Sunday---So do not copy this in the bulletin.)
Here’s
a prayer of intercession from the Church of Scotland’s Starters for Sunday website.
It was written by Rev Allan McCafferty.
Prayer of Intercession
(inspired by 1 Kings
17)
Hear
us as we pray for those who are thirsty,
places
where there is drought,
or
a lack of a clean water supply.
And
for those who have to carry water for miles to keep everyday life feasible.
Lord
hear us
Lord graciously hear
us
We
pray for those who are hungry,
places
where the harvest has failed,
or
some disaster or accident has affected the crop yield.
For
those who are struggling to find employment
and so struggling to afford to put
the food they
would like on the table.
Lord
hear us
Lord graciously hear
us
We
pray for those who are struggling because they are widows or widowers,
for
those who are bereaved
having experienced the death of someone important to
them
whom they
loved and still love.
Lord
hear us
Lord graciously hear
us
We
pray for those who are ill or near death,
those
known to us
and
those unknown to us but known to you
Lord
hear us
Lord graciously hear
us
In
silence we lift up those people and situations uppermost in our thinking today…
Lord
hear us
Lord graciously hear
us
And
hear us as we sum up all our prayers in the words Jesus taught us….
Our Father…
