Prayer for peace
O Divine Spirit. Help us to accept that none of us is perfect, that we all can make mistakes.
Help us to see that when we get angry or push for our own rights we may be hurting others.
Help all people to see the good in others and to recognise that we are all human beings.

Martin Luther Service Prayer
Divine Spirit, be with us as we consider yet again the great questions.
If we reasoning creatures become given over utterly to reason, help us to consider that there might be light to be found beyond reason.
If we are struggling with the pain of fresh wounds help us to have confidence that they will heal, and
Weather blessing
Through the cycles of new moons and full moons,
we’ve travelled on a myriad of pathways,
through weathers of all the personalities of the Gods.
Snow may have been your playmate or your trickster,

May I ever rest with Thee
In this most sacred inner place.
