St Luke'S Church Bricket Wood

A prayer for BREXIT - please pray as we prepare to leave the European Union.

On this Holocaust Memorial Day we stand with our Jewish brothers and sisters to remember, and say Never Again.
E’l De’ot, God who knows,
God who says Immo anochi betzarah, ‘I am with you in your troubles’,
... Be with us, instruct us, guide us.
Give us eyes to see, ears to hear, a heart to care.
Discomfort our conscience, dispel indifference.
Demand of us the determination to name and call out hatred, in ourselves, our society, the world, anywhere, everywhere.
Prevent us from despairing of the power of goodness, compassion, courage and faith.
Imbue us with loving kindness to cure the wounds with can be healed and tend with gentle understanding those beyond our repair.
Open our hearts to the intricate, destructible wonder and fragile privilege of life. Amen.

Christmas is not a joyful time for us all: we are also praying for those for whom Christmas is a sad or painful time.
Our Midnight Mass (at 11.30 pm tonight) is a quieter, more traditional service, which offers a space to reflect, or maybe just a time of quietness in the midst of the noise and bright lights. Everybody is welcome to join us.

A very happy Christmas to you and all you love and care for, from us all at St Luke's (and Danny the donkey, who made a star appearance on Sunday!) We have fun, family services today at 5.00 pm and tomorrow at 10.30 am - everybody is welcome!
