The daily cycles of prayer for the Rochester Diocese

Prayer points for October 18, 2020

God of compassion, be close to those who are ill, afraid or in isolation.

From plague, famine and disaster; from violence, murder and dying unprepared, good Lord, deliver us.

The Litany


Trinity 19

 

Isaiah 35.3-6 or Acts 16.6-12a

Psalm 147.1-7

2 Timothy 4.5-17

Luke 10.1-9

Today the Church of England remembers Luke the Evangelist.

Health and Wellbeing

Paul describes Luke as 'the belovèd physician' so this day is often set aside for ministry and prayers that focus on health and well-being.
