In the Old Testament, the Lord fed his people. In the Eucharist he feeds us with the food and drink for eternal life. We pray and are thankful for this great gift.

• God instructs us with the same message Christ instructed the twelve – “Do not be afraid!” We pray for all the prayer requests taken to the Eucharistic altar each Sunday.

• We pray that we are worthy witnesses of Christ.
• For we Christians, there can be no “foreigners”. By welcoming each other, we welcome Christ. We pray that the welcoming spirit of Christ envelops us.
• We pray for Father Peter and his continued healing and restoration and continued blessings for the years ahead.

During this time after Pentecost we are asked to regenerate our lives modelled on Christ under the direction of the spirit.

Don’t forget the Living Prayer box at the back of the church – place your intentions in the box and they will be taken up and placed at the altar during the Prayers of the Faithful.
