  1. Evening Prayer Tuesday, October 14th

  2. Opening Sentence and Prayer Let us pray: O God who loves everything that lives, and whose immortal spirit is in all created life, free us from thoughts that would separate us from you, from words that harm the soul and from errors that invite darkness into the world.

  3. From inner confusions over what is good grant us a clarity of vision, that we may see your creative wisdom pervading all things and each day making life new.

  4. In the stillness of evening, let us glimpse within us and among us the light that is an emanation of your glory that we may be renewed once again, O God, in the image of your goodness.

  5. Holy God, holy and mighty, holy and immortal, have mercy upon us. Silence

  6. Song for reflection

  7. Prayers of Thanksgiving and Intercession We give thanks , O God, for all that is good within us, between us, and around us, for the beauty of the sky’s constellations, for patterns of kindness and creativity among people, for generosities that shine in human lives,

  8. all these things conceived by your wisdom and from the beginning brought forth in love. We give thanks that life has flowed from you and to you returns, that we are born not of mere chance to pass like traces of a cloud, but to share in the eternity of your life, and that the world is ruled not by earth’s elements and heaven’s stars, but by the wisdom and greatness that created them.

  9. Protect us and all people, O God, from destructive forces within and without, from powers that see no meaning beyond possessing and enjoying. And grant us eyes to discern the great spirits of our time in who love and wisdom are found, so that as we seek new beginnings for ourselves and for our world we may be guided by their understanding and by their hope.

  10. Free prayer and offerings Leader – Lord, teach us to pray together: Our Father… Amen. From An Earthful of Glory by Philip Newell
