Today’s Prayer From Canterbury Cathedral

We pray today for our world, that as we move through the phases of the COVID-19 emergency, we would strive for collaboration not conflict between nations:

God of love,
in whom we are all united,
bring together in your peace all the nations of this world.
Keep us from the temptations of blame and aggression,
to which our grief so often leads,
and help us instead to pursue the ways of
gentleness, diplomacy, and understanding,
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Lord bless us and keep us, the Lord make his face to shine upon us and be gracious to us, the Lord lift up the light of his countenance upon us and give us peace.

Amen.

In line with new national coronavirus restrictions, from Thursday 5th November to Wednesday 2nd December the Cathedral  has been closed to visitors and there  are no public services of worship. The Cathedral remains open for private prayer and daily online worship continue. The Cathedral’s clergy have also created a range of other online video content, including the Dean’s readings of classic tales.
