THOMAS THE APOSTLE 3 July 2005
Eucharistic Prayer F or G may be used at
Holy Communion Services today
We welcome all who worship here today. If
you are a newcomer please speak to one of the welcomers
or to one of the clergy. We invite
you to complete a card which you will find in your pew, or on the table near
the door of the church, and hand it to one of the welcomers. Communicant members of all Churches are
welcome to receive Holy Communion. If
you are not receiving Communion please come to the altar rail for a blessing
and carry a book so the minister knows.
Collect: Almighty and eternal God, who, for the firmer
foundation of our faith, allowed your holy apostle Thomas to doubt the
resurrection of your Son till word and sight convinced him; grant to us, who have not seen,
that we also may believe and so confess Christ as our Lord and our God; who
is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now
and for ever. AMEN
Readings:
Habakkuk 2:1-4 Ephesians
2:19-end John 20:24-29
Post
Communion: Almighty God, who
on the day of Pentecost sent your Holy Spirit to the apostles with the wind from heaven and in tongues of
flame, filling them with joy and boldness to preach the gospel: by the power
of the same Spirit strengthen us to witness to your truth and to draw
everyone to the fire of your love; through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN
We pray this week
for Christopher our
Bishop and for Christopher and Richard his suffragans
for ourselves as we are led by the Churchwardens
and the PCC to appoint a Rector who will be able to guide us as we seek to
play our part in God’s plans for the future.
for the Centre for the
elderly at Gossoms End, for the Hospice of St Francis and for the Iain Rennie
Hospice at home, for those who need care and for those who provide care in
many ways.
for the lonely, the anxious, the bereaved; and amongst the sick for Douglas Hartley, May
Kempster, Michael Taylor, Christine Tucker, Brenda Quarmby, Jenny Cracknell ,
Elizabeth Jackson, Rita Euden
for those who have died recently:
and at their anniversaries pray for: Hamish Douglas, Robert Chambers, Bernard Kempster, Florence Conway, Karen Breakwell,
Barbara Bartrum
We
give thanks for our communion with all the Saints, especially the Blessed
Virgin Mary and St Peter our patron.
At
All Saints’ the weekly prayers are for everyone who lives in Charles St (from North Rd to Cross Oak Rd)
PLEASE TAKE THIS PEW LEAFLET AWAY WITH YOU as a reminder of dates,
subjects for prayer etc. Do take
copies for anyone not here today.

you.
