God of all, God of now, hear our prayer.
There is so much uncertainty in the air.
We are unclear, confused, with worries for the near future and fears for what lies ahead.
Still us and calm our troubled souls.
In this time of raging waters, be our anchor.
In this time of fearsome winds, be our robust shelter.
In this time of ever-changing leadership, be our one true guide.
Still us and calm our troubled souls.
As we mourn those who we have lost, to Covid and over the years,
May we know your presence alongside us.
As we mourn the lives we had planned to live, now also lost to us,
May we know your presence alongside us.
As we mourn the utter, tragic waste and needlessness of it all,
May we know your presence alongside us.
Still us and calm our troubled souls.
Amen.
Peace be with you.
As a colleague wrote recently when others feel that churches are closing, God is opening up church in every house.
