I'm afraid the #LectionaryPrayers have been a bit tardy recently, but my beloved Dad died early on Saturday. Billy was a skilled and creative tradesman joiner, who with my late mother brought up family of four and ran a very respected small business. A decent and faithful man who will be much missed
"Spirit our Companion.
open our eyes to the reality of what Jesus has done for us
through his death and resurrection;
and when we face death and darkness
help us to sense Christ’s life-giving presence
walking alongside us. Amen."
