Prayer of the Day

Saturday 31 July 2010

God, good beyond all that is good, fair beyond all that is fair. In you is calmness, peace and concord. Heal our divisions, draw us into your divine nature, and through the embrace of your love make us one in Spirit. Amen.

Dionysius of Alexandria (d. 264)

Heavenly Father, we thank you for the Church across the world and for the truth that in the Church there are no strangers, only friends we have yet to meet. May we all learn to open ourselves more and more to the friendship and fellowship of the diverse Church, that we may be a shining witness to the way of Jesus, so all may see "how these christians love one another".* Amen

John Howard, Wolverhampton & Shrewsbury District Chair *Turtullian, Apologia 39.7
