Night Prayer Monday 23rd January 2023

Using the Church of England form of Night Prayer (Compline) and including specific prayers for our world, our community, our family and friends and for ourselves. A short Bible reading 1 Corinthians 9 v 19, 22 and 23, linking those verses to our Diocesan Vision 2026 - healthy churches transforming communities - how do we tell out the good news of Jesus? Paul says he has become like those he is serving so that by all possible means he may win some for Christ. In the Diocese there is a programme called MPower which seeks to help train and equip the people of God to share what Christ has done for them, the joy of His salvation, the offer of Christ to be reconciled with God the Father and to know the power of the Holy Spirit. No need for great academic knowledge, or the ability to write essays on theological issues, just a heart for Christ and a willingness to share His word with those around us. He does not call the equipped, He equips the called. God of all mercy, Your Son proclaimed the good news to the poor, release to the captives and freedom to the oppressed; anoint us with Your Holy Spirit and set all Your people free to praise You in Christ our Lord. Amen (the alternate Collect for the 3rd Sunday of Epiphany)
