PRAYING FOR SOMEONE OVER THE NEXT THREE WEEKS
As highlighted last week we hope you will now choose someone distanced from the Church to pray for – they might be lapsed or perhaps a non-Catholic. Over these three weeks pray that they may come into full communion with Christ’s Mystical body in the Catholic Church. Then is three weeks time we will give you a leaflet, to give to the person you’ve been praying for. The leaflet will invite them to come to our Advent Mission (starting 8th Dec), led by ex-Gangster John Pridmore and his St Patrick’s Community. May they “Come Home For Christmas”!

Here is a prayer you can use daily to pray for the person you have chosen:

As the seed grows silently in the earth,
As the yeast rises in the dough,
May your power, Spirit of God, be at work in us.
Like a city set on a hill,
Like a lamp shining in the darkness,
May we witness together,
Calling our brother/sister to the glory of your light
And the peace and justice of your kingdom. AMEN.
