The work and witness of the Church in the diocese, in vale and valley, in city and suburb, in town and village, is part of the unceasing worship offered by the wider Church of Almighty God.In our diocese, the mother church, Llandaff Cathedral remembers the parishes, clergy, committees, specialist ministries and the people each day at the Eucharist. The diocese is asked to pray for the work of the Cathedral in its servant role and especially on those days in which your parish is remembered at the Cathedral.The titles of the Sundays and other days are from the Church in Wales Lectionary for 2019/20 Year A, Weekdays Year II.

Growing our capacity for good

INCREASE OF THE SACRED MINISTRYO Lord, we pray that more men and women be guided by your Spirit to seek ordination to your Sacred Ministry. Guide those who feel called to seek advice. May we Lord, encourage those who feel called to serve you as Deacon and Priest and also those who are called to ministry as Reader. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

PILGRIMAGEWe are a pilgrim people and our destiny is heaven.As we travel towards the light of Christ,may we encourage one anotherthrough life’s rough seas and stone-filled paths.

Lord, we are equal pilgrims on the journey to you.As we seek to value each other

4

as equal pilgrims on this earth,let us open our hearts to your love.No matter how young or old,we are here to follow you. Amen

God with UsWe Christians do not have a fully satisfying explanation for whythe world contains so much suffering. But we have something better: we have the power to deal with the suffering. We know where our Godf is during suffering. Our God is with us: with the Jewish boyon the gallows, with Ivan Ilychin sickness, with Job in adversity, with Paul in weakness and persecution, with Jesus in crucifixion – with us in all the senseless accidents and ruptured relationships and interior brokeness of our lives.

Richard J. Hauser, SJ. “Finding God in Troubled Times”

The Benefits of Boring Prayer.Why does God lead us to ordinary times of prayer, which we so quickly label as boring.

God may be gently tilling the soil of your soul for some future harvest, preparing the ground for a bold insight or a deeper emotional experience to come.

God may use the times of dryness to heighton your sense of God’s presence, so that you will be aware of that presence later in the day or week.

God may invite you to ordinary times to kindle deep desires and longings. In this case, restlessness is a good thing.

God may simply want to give you a rest after an intense experience of prayer. Enjoy the stillness and quiet.

Remember, in ordinary times of praying, we may feel that God is not there or not listening. To the contrary, God is there, but not as we

5

imagine or have experienced in the past. Be faithful, God is always close.

Kevin O’Brien, SJ. “The Ignation Adventure”

For to this end we toil and struggle, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Saviour of all people.

1 Timothy 4: 10

What would an unbeliever see in you that would identify you as a person of faith?

ADVENT

Lord, in this holy season of Advent, our thoughts turn to the coming of the Christ-child and to Mary the mother-to-be.We remember the journey taken by the Holy Family and we ask that as we journey through life, we may show the same love, care and obedience to God’s will.Give us thankful hearts, filled with compassion and understanding, that we may in return, share these gift with others. Amen (Manchester Diocese)

Arglwydd, yn y tymor sanctaidd hwn, tymor yr Adfent, mae ein meddylliau’n troi at ddyfodiad Crist y plenty ac at Mair y ddarpar-fam.Dyro i ni galonnau sy’n fythol ddiolchgar, yn llawn o dosturi a dealltwriaeth, fel y gallwn, yn gyfnewid, rannu’r rhonddion hyn ag reaill. Amen.
