A Prayer for Ukraine
God of peace and justice

we pray for the people of Ukraine today.
We pray for peace and the laying down of weapons.
We pray for all those who fear for tomorrow, that your Spirit of comfort would draw near to them.
We pray for those with power over war or peace, for wisdom, discernment and compassion to guide their decisions.
Above all, we pray for all your precious children, at risk and in fear, that you would hold and protect them.
We pray in the name of Jesus, the Prince of Peace. Amen
Archbishop Justin Welby                               Archbishop Stephen Cottrell

Prayer and Message from the Rector
Father forgive the things we have done which have brought you pain, and also
things that we should have done that would have brought you joy. Help us on our journey
as we follow you on the path to the Cross and may we meet with you in that Holy place
Amen

This week we meet with the angry Jesus. He makes a whip of cords and drives
out all those in the Temple selling animals and changing money. He cleanses the Temple of all these people. Jesus was angry that all these things were going on and the injustice of it for the ordinary people. They would go to the Temple to but a sacrifice to offer to God but then they had to change their money from the everyday money to the Temple money. The profane money with the head of the Emperor was not allowed and so they changed it to Temple money but obviously there was a mark up which benefited the money changers and the Temple authorities. These days we have various events in our church buildings in the
hope of raising money but there are also other reasons. We hope to make our
church into a welcoming space for those who are lonely or who want to meet
people and make friends. We have fun. It is part of our way of honouring the command of Christ to “love one another”. Blessings Richard
