A Prayer for Sunday 25th April 2021
Like a gull soars over the ocean, roaming watchfully, may your gaze soar over us. Like a dolphin plays gracefully in the waves, dancing lightly, may your Spirit dance with us.

A Prayer for Sunday 28th March 2021, Palm Sunday
God who showed us the way to live is not through greatness, but through humility, help us to always seek the way of service over the way of glory.

A Prayer for Sunday 21st March 2021
Spirit who calls us to brave and bold steps, may we never lose the courage to say ‘yes’. Spirit who leads us as we speak out against injustice, may we never lose the courage to raise our voices loud.
