Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your Name.

But deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory.
Now and for ever
Amen

you have protected me in battle.

O LORD, hear our evening prayers we ask
As we thank you for the blessings of this Sunday
For we believe and trust in you
As we name others seeking you
As we pilgrimage on into this new week
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
