Collect for Today
Lord God,
defend your Church from all false teaching
and give to your people knowledge of your truth,
that we may enjoy eternal life
in Jesus Christ our Lord.


Post Communion Prayer
Keep, O Lord, your Church, with your perpetual mercy;
and, because without you our human frailty cannot but fall,
keep us ever by your help from all things hurtful,
and lead us to all things profitable to our salvation;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.

A personal thank you from Kim:
Dear All, I can’t thank you enough for the overwhelming love, support and prayers I have received over the last week while I recover. It has been a slower journey then I was lead to believe but God’s grace and your prayers have meant the world to me and sustained me in the harder times.

I am now back to work so thank you for you patience with me. I need to state that I am perfectly well but my voice is still a bit soft (there is no pain it is just still healing). Please be patient with me if you phone or speak to me as I cannot project my voice at this time. However, I am back, fit and well so don’t hesitate to get a hold of me. Thank you again for your patience and support! Blessings, Kim
