MIDNIGHT PRAYER (Matins)

Christian Worship from Papua New Guinea

Collect

Suppliant at Gesthemane, Christ of the martyrs,
we praise you for the missionaries of Papua New Guinea,
who came to serve their people
and stayed when they might have escaped;
may we too be willing, should you ask,
to drink your cup.
Amen.

Thanksgiving

Thank Him for 3 things that happened today (Good or Not!)

Prayer

Our Father,
save us from the time of trial,
and deliver us from evil.

Giver of the present, hope for the future:
save us from the time of trial.
When prophets warn us of doom,
of catastrophe and of suffering beyond belief,
then, God, free us from our helplessness,
and deliver us from evil.
Save us from our arrogance and folly,
for you are God who created the world;
you have redeemed us and you are our salvation.
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.
