Suffering Lord,
Heal our wounds.
Compassionate Christ,
Teach us love.
Good Shepherd,
Seek and save us.
Crucified Jesus,
Forgive our sins.
Risen Lord,
Renew our faith.
Ascended Christ,
Reign in us,
Now and always.
Archbishop Desmond Tutu

In St Mary’s prayer cycle for this month, we pray that we may bear fruits of patience and peace.
***
In these unprecedented times, St Mary’s is reaching out and supporting our community in many ways, especially online. But with activities in our buildings greatly restricted, we no longer receive the previous level of financial support from collections at Services, nor from hiring out the church and hall buildings.
If you can help us financially to continue to offer Christ's love to our community in these difficult times, please consider making a donation by debit/credit card and to Gift Aid it if possible, by clicking this link to 'givealittle':
