Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God

Is this your God?
Is this your prayer this morning?

Praise him, all peoples!
His love for us is strong
And his faithfulness is eternal.
Praise the LORD!’

And those who use the Pathway of Peace at this time
Father God…hear our prayers and bless them each and all we ask.

Reading : read this very short passage again from PSALM 117

Reflect on the words of praise at the end of your day

O LORD, hear our evening prayers
As we return our thanks to you
For those you have shown compassion to
Even today
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Call to Evening Prayer

Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth!
Worship the Lord with gladness.
Come before him, singing with joy.
Acknowledge that the Lord is God!
He made us, and we are his.
We are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving;
go into his courts with praise.
Give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the Lord is good.
His unfailing love continues forever,
and his faithfulness continues to each generation

Together we say Amen!
