Diocesan Prayer Diary

We invite the whole Diocese to pray together each day: for and with each other. Each day we pray for our Bishop and the ministry of the whole Diocese. On rotation, we pray for each of our congregations: please pray for those in recognized ministries, the vestry, and the whole congregation as they minister within and across all areas of our Diocese.

Month A: January, March, May, July, September, November

Month B: February, April, June, August, October, December

During the Vacancy in See, we encourage the Diocese to pray for the person God is calling to be our next Bishop, and all those involved in the Bishop Search process.

Living God,
you walk with us in all seasons of life
calling us to follow you with joy, hope and love
as we share in your work of renewing the world;
give us humility and discernment to hear your voice,
that those discerning their calling
and all involved in our bishop search
may be encouraged in your ways
and open to your creative Spirit.
Amen.
