SERMON Preached by Tony
Holy Spirit, sent by the Father, ignite in us your holy fire;
Strengthen your children with the gift of faith,
Revive your church with the breath of love,
And renew the face of the earth, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
PRAYERS Led by Liz
Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory,
for ever and ever.
Amen
