Some short prayers
Lord, today, some of us need a fresh start in life. Others of us could do with a bit of a freshen up. Fill us with your spirit and start us on the journey to a better future.
Amen
 

Lord, help us to put our trust for the future in you. And make us the person you want us to be.
Amen

Lord, although we may not think we can do much, help us today to bring colour, kindness and love into your world.
Amen

The Lords Prayer

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

Pointers for Prayer 

Pray the Lords Prayer through, and then take one of the phrases. Spend a few moments reflecting on that phrase, for example, imagining what it means for God's Kingdom to come, or how we forgive those who sin against us. Then use these thoughts for further prayer, finally coming back to pray through the Lord's Prayer again
