DMAS Cycle of Prayer

The Christian Church is a community of prayer and one of the chief duties of each Christian is to pray for his or her brothers and sisters in The Faith.  Therefore, each week during the Church Year, at each service held in each congregation of the Diocese, we ask all to include those parishes, dioceses, and the associated clergy listed in their prayers.  The clergy of the Diocese, who are all bound to say daily Morning and Evening Prayer, are asked to include them in their daily prayers as well.

DIOCESAN PRAYER

ALMIGHTY God, who alone gavest us the breath of life, and alone canst keep alive in us the holy desires thou dost impart; We beseech thee, for thy compassion’s sake, to sanctify all our thoughts and endeavours; that we may neither begin an action without a pure intention nor continue it without thy blessing.  And grant that, having the eyes of the mind opened to behold things invisible and unseen, we may in heart be inspired by thy wisdom, and in work be unheld by thy strength, and in the end be accepted of thee as thy faithful servants; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.
