Gracious God,
you have given us much today;
grant us also a thankful spirit.
Into your hands we commend ourselves
and those we love.
Be with us still, and when we take our rest
renew us for the service of your Son Jesus Christ.
Amen.

Prayer
God our Creator, our centre, our friend,
we thank you for our good life,
for those who are dear to us,
for our dead, and all who have helped and influenced us.
We thank You for the measure of freedom we have,
and the extent to which we control our lives,
and most of all we thank you for the faith that is in us,
for our awareness of you, and our hope in you.
Keep us, we pray you, thankful and hopeful
and useful until our lives shall end.
Amen
The Blessing
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,
and the love of God,
and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit,
be with us all evermore.
Amen
The divine Spirit dwells in us.
Thanks be to God.
