Prayer to St. Brigid Brigid, You were a woman of peace. You brought harmony where there was conflict. You brought light to the darkness. You brought hope to the downcast. May the mantle of your peace cover those who are troubled and anxious, and may peace be firmly rooted in our hearts and in our world. Inspire us to act justly and to reverence all God has made. Strengthen what is weak within us. Calm us into a quietness that heals and listens. May we grow each day into greater wholeness in mind, body and spirit. Amen

Remember, O most loving Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, we turn to you, O Virgins of virgins, our Mother. To you we come, before you we stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, do not despise our petitions, but in your mercy hear us and answer us. Amen.

Dear Lord, please bless our church for we gather here to ask that You'll prepare our hearts to hear your message clear. We pray our church will always be a beacon to all who attend, Proclaiming truth and righteousness till Jesus comes again. We gather as a family to hear the Word of God, And we are always blessed because we came. Our fellowship and sweet communion fit us for the task Of living to bring honor to His Name.
Traditionally, the month of November gives us pause to ponder our own mortality as well as remembering our beloved who have gone before us in faith. We remember especially those members of our parish family who have died this past year. Their names are ascribed beautifully in our Book of Life and inspire us all to pray for them and their families. Book Of Remembrance
Walk With God by Ellen Baily When you walk with God, you can do anything It doesn't matter what problems life may bring You may have your days of ups and downs But if you call out, He'll be around When you walk with God, your heart will sing From the love and joy His presence brings Your path will be clear, for He is the light But you must walk with faith and not by sight When you walk with God, you join a Holy Team The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost is what I mean They will shower you with an abiding faith And fill your heart with love and not with hate Prepared by Alice Sam Raatjes
