The work and witness of the Church in the diocese, in vale and valley, in city and suburb, in town and village, is part of the unceasing worship offered by the wider Church of Almighty God.In our diocese, the mother church, Llandaff Cathedral remembers the parishes, clergy, committees, specialist ministries and the

2

people each day at the Eucharist. The diocese is asked to pray for the work of the Cathedral in its servant role and especially on those days in which your parish is remembered at the Cathedral.

A PRAYER FOR THE DIOCESEFather, you gave us Jesus Christ your Son to be both

Lord and Saviour. By the power of your Spirit, renew yourChurch in this Diocese o Llandaff, and help us to bring

the good news of Salvation to all your people.We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Telling a joyful storyBuilding the kingdom of God

Growing our capacity for good

3

Loving Heavenly Father, you call us to grow your Kingdom.Help us to tell a joyful storyand to build your goodness in our world,through Jesus Christ our Lord.Amen.

 Nefol Dad Cariadus,gelwaist ni i dyfu dy Deyrnas.Cynorthwya ni i adrodd stori lawenac i adeiladu dy ddaioni yn ein byd,trwy Iesu Grist ein Harglwydd.Amen.

 

I am the Water of life,4

the living fountainthat will refresh and renew you.

I am the Light of the World,that will give you the courage to enter the darkness of the world,and to keep the faith in a changing church.

I am the Bread of LifeThe ground grain that rises as life-giving bread,that will sustain you and help you to grow in faith,and deepen your communionwith the saints, living and departed.

I am the True Vine,that can unite youand nurture your desire to be poured out in joyful service,like the crush fruit poured into the chalice of my love.

I am the Way the Truth and the Life:The path, the means and the end of all journeys.

I am the resurrection and the lifethat will bring you to your final destination,to the one God and Father of us all.To him be the glory for ever and ever. Amen

Healing Forgiveness

Lord save us 5

from erecting or hiding behind the obstacles of lingering guilt, harbouring grudges, or nursing resentments.Open our eyes to the healing forgivenessfor ever flowing from the cross.When we doubt the power of your forgiving love,when we turn in on our unforgiving side;may we hear those timeless words:Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.May your forgiving Spirit live in us and bring us the joy that is in heavenover each act of healing forgiveness.Growing in trust Lord Jesus,your goodness is greater than all our sinfulness,your truth is deeper than all our denials,your love is stronger than all our betrayals; help to live trusting in your word:Do not let your hearts be troubled,trust in God still, and trust in me.

(based on a reflection by Fr Gerard Hughes in God of Compassion)

LIVING OUT OUR BAPTISMAL PROMISES

Compassionate Godopen our heartsthat we may feel the breath and play of your Spirit,unclench our hands that we may reach out to one anotherin openness and generosity,free our lipsthat we may speakfor those whose voices are not heard,

6

unblock our earsto hear the cries of the broken hearted,and open our eyesto see Christ in friend and stranger,so that in sharing our love and pain,our poverty and prosperity,we may move towards that peace and justicewhich comes from youand so be bearers of divine reconciliation.

Heavenly Father,we thank you for speaking to usthrough the Holy Scriptures;help us both to listen with our minds,that we may understand its message;and to listen with our hearts,that we may respond in faith.May your word to change and shape our lives.

RISEN LORDCome and reveal yourself to us,in the upper room of all our fears.May we hear afresh your words of peace.Come and join us on the seashore of our busy distracted lives, with the gift of hope and a new way forward.Bring us to the mountain of your holy presence, and breathe your creative spirit over us so that we may live always in the power of your life-giving Spirit and so daily witness to the reality of your Risen Life.

PentecostWe give you thanks for the working of the Spirit in our lives, for the

gifts we have and the guidance we have received. We pray for those

who have been our teachers and educators, for all who have brought

us into a fuller and richer life.

We remember our homes and our loved ones.

Breathe on us, Breath of God,

and fill us with life anew.

‘Glimpses of Glory’ David Adams

The day long promised –Day of transformation,from frightened disciple to powerful preachers,from the downhearted to the uplifted.

Day of action –The descent from God that lifts us back up to God.After much waiting and reflectingthe sending out begins.

Day of sharing –This new life cannot be containedor restricted in any way.It is out of control!

Day of freedom – The chains of the past fall off,the darkness of Calvary fully lifts,all creation is changed within.

Day of proclamation – The silence of the tomb is broken

46

by a language too deep for words,groaning within us.

This is the day of the Spirit.This is our day.Let us rejoice and be glad in it.Let us welcome and live each dayas if it were our last,with hearts and minds set on fireby God’s daily guest.
