Readings for the Feast of St Matthew (14th Sunday after Trinity)
Proverbs 3 13 - 18;
2 Corinthians 4 1 - 6;
Matthew 9 9 - 13
Prayer for 14th Sunday after Trinity
Heavenly Father, keep us from ungodly and unprincipled thinking. Keep the eyes of our
hearts looking to Jesus for our provision and protection. Prevent us, from looking to our own
sources for security. May we have undivided hearts that look to Jesus for all that we need,
Amen
Prayers for the Feast of St Matthew
Heavenly Father, as we reflect on the passage from Matthew, where You, through Your Son
Jesus Christ, called Matthew from his life as a tax collector and welcomed the outcasts and
sinners into Your presence, we thank You that You do not see us through the lens of our past
or our mistakes, but rather through the potential of who we can become in You.
Holy Father, we come before You with humble hearts, seeking the guidance and wisdom
exemplified by St. Matthew. May his dedication inspire us to share the Good News and serve our communities with love. Grant us the strength to follow Your path, as Matthew did, and to fulfil our calling in Your name.
Amen.
Prayer for the sick
We pray for those who are sick and who ask for our prayers: Patrick, Mark and Debbie,
Mike, Joan C, Emma, Arthur, and Gill. We also remember silently in our hearts: Heather,
Jackie, Ann, Dave, Brenda, Monica, Hester, Kerry, Izabel, John and Paul.
Rest in peace
We remember those who have died recently and pray for their families at this sad time.
Gill Chaloner, widow of the late Rev Stephen Chaloner, Priest in Charge of Binstead &
Havenstreet from 1988 until 1999
In Memoriam
We pray for all those who remember the anniversary of those who are recorded in our
memorial book for this week
