Prayer of the week
Almighty God, 
by whose grace alone we are accepted 
and called to your service: 
strengthen us by your Holy Spirit 
and make us worthy of our calling; 
through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.

Prayer of the day
Almighty God,
whose Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ, is the light of the world: 
may your people, illumined by your word and sacraments, 
shine with the radiance of his glory, 
that he may be known, worshipped, and obeyed 
to the ends of the earth; 
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, 
one God, now and for ever.  Amen.
