Sung: In the name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit now and for ever. Amen.
Prayer:
Loving God, in the words of the Prophets and the Gospel of your Son
you have shown us your love
and taught us that we are brothers and sisters.
Help us to live in peace
and to support those who suffer from any kind of oppression or violence.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
A reading from the Prophet Isaiah 32: 15 ss
There will be poured on us the spirit from above,
then shall the wilderness be fertile land
and fertile land become forest;
in the wilderness justice will come to live and integrity in the fertile land.
Integrity will bring peace, justice give lasting security.
My people will live in a peaceful home, in safe houses, in quiet dwellings.
Sung: Our Father
