John Waldren and Tiny Tots. PRAYER PAGE ✴ Help us Lord, to use December as a time of reflection to prepare ourselves for Christmas, so we can celebrate its joy in the right spirit but that we also remember people throughout the world, countries at war, the misplaced, refugees, asylum seekers and the homeless. Help us, to have sympathetic hearts, to do what we can in terms of practical support. ✴ Christmas will be a sad time for many who have lost loved ones, help to comfort them Lord, by your Holy Spirit. We also remember all who work in hospitals and other health care sectors. ✴ Lord, grant us the wisdom to care for the earth and till it. Help us to act now for the good of future generations and all your creatures. Help us to become instruments of a new creation, Founded on the covenant of your love. ✴ Help us to never despair that the problems of the world are so huge and we are so small: we are not alone. You are with us, the source of light and strength. Help us always to have hope in our hearts, and to do what is right and good. ✴ Jesus, the Light of the World, as we celebrate your birth, may we begin to see the world in the light of understanding you give us. As you chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship you in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving 9
