1 Group Reflections on a lifetime of prayer Autumn 2013 season
2 Opening Prayers Let us take a few moments to gather ourselves; to distance ourselves from the busyness of the world; to bring our thoughts, cares and concerns before the Father.

9 Psalm 103(102) - Alternate the Psalm, two sides of the room A, B. A B A Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, who forgives all your iniquity, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good as long as you live so that your youth is renewed like the eagle s. The Lord works vindication and justice for all who are oppressed. He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel.
10 B A B The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. He will not always accuse, nor will he keep his anger for ever. So great is his love towards those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, As a father has compassion for his children, the Lord has compassion for those who fear him. The steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children s children, to those who keep his covenant Bless the Lord, O my soul.
11 Prayer What is prayer? A surge of the heart? A rich treasure, never exhausted? A lover s conversation? A struggle and a challenge? What are your experiences of prayer? Favourite prayers? Who taught you to pray?

29 Closing Prayer Eternal Father, your Son has promised that whatever we ask in his name will be given to us. In his name I pray: give me a burning faith, a joyful hope, a holy love for Jesus Christ. Give me the grace of perseverance in doing your will in all things. Do with me what you will. I repent of having offended you. Grant, O Lord, that I may love you always and never let me be separated from you. O my God and my All, make me a saint! Amen. St Alphonsus Maria de Liguori ( )
