Prayer for Candlemas
Lord, thank You for being the Light that never fades. Even when life feels uncertain, Your
presence brings hope and clarity. “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never
walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (John 8:12). Help us to lean on Your light and
let it shine through our words and actions. May Your light touch everyone we meet in the
coming days.
Amen
Prayer for the sick
We pray for those who are sick and who ask for our prayers: Patrick, Mike, Joan C, Emma,

Brenda, Monica, Hester, Kerry, Izabel and Paul.
Rest in peace
We remember those who have died recently and pray for their families at this sad time.
In Memoriam
We pray for all those who remember the anniversary of those who are recorded in our
