3 Praying for our Diocese For the disciples at the Last Supper, there must have been many conflicting emotions when Jesus got up to wash their feet. Shame that they hadn t done it themselves, what must have been by then a familiar sense of confusion as Jesus turned the established order on its head, and then probably some amusement at Peter s outburst. But for many of us in similar situations, what can be hard is to allow others to serve or help us. I can manage, we say, when we clearly can t. I had a colleague who would put anyone who sneezed in a Sunday service on the prayer list, but would never allow himself to go on, despite major health problems of his own. When we invite others to pray for us, we open ourselves to the vulnerability of admitting that we need it. It is a privilege to be prayed for, and yet it can be hard to say to ourselves and others, that we, like the disciples, need the Lord s intervention in our lives and ministries. We pray for each other out of our own weakness, we pray for each other despite differences, we pray for each other without knowing what God has planned for us. In prayer, then, we take the role of the disciples, humbled by being served by the Master. But we also take the role of Christ himself, our prayers showing our own care for those for whom we pray. We pray out of a desire to meet their needs, to serve them and to see their ministries flourishing. Jesus left us a legacy of servant leadership. By praying for each other, we continue to serve one another in our common life. The Diocesan Cycle of Prayer is a way of focusing the prayer of the diocese, ensuring that all are prayed for equally, and none excluded, and offers each of us the certain knowledge that we are a valued part of a larger body. The forms of Daily Prayer (The Office) used in the Church of England are now available online at daily.commonworship.com. Rev Jeremy Fagan Diocesan Liturgy & Worship Forum Chair
