| 1. Pray where you are, God is present everywhere and ready to
listen. II. Pray, when possible, in a quiet place where you can be alone. It is well to fix your mind deliberately on god, apart from confusing distractions. III. Pray to God simply and naturally, as to a friend. Tell Him what is on your mind. Get help from the prayers of others. IV. Pray, remembering the good things God has done for you. Reckon up your blessings from time to time, and give thanks for them. V.Pray for Gods forgiveness for the unworthy things that you may have done. He is near to a humble and contrite heart. VI. Pray for the things you need, especially those that will make your life finer and more Christlike. VII. Pray for others, remembering the situations they confront and the help they need. VIII. Pray for the world in its need, asking God to bring better things and offering your help to them. IX. Pray above everything else that Gods will may be done in you and in the world. His purposes are deeper and wiser than anything we can imagine. X. Pray, and then let God use you in answering your prayer. |
Our Father, we thank thee for the joy of having this
child to love and to care for, and to bring up in faith in thee. Grant us grace to
give him/her the full measure of our devotion, and to set before him/her always
a good example of the Christian life. Bless us in our growth together, and may
our home be enriched by the simple joys that come of loving and serving one
another; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Jesus,
Tender Shepard, hear me. Bless thy little lamb tonight. Through the darkness be
Thou near me,Keep me safe til morning light. All this day Thy hand has led me,
and has kept me in thy care. Thou has warmed me, clothed me, fed me. Listen
to my evening prayer. May my sins be all forgiven, bless the ones I love so well.
Take us at last to heaven, Happy there with Thee to dwell.--Joan
Gregory.
Our Father, who art in heaven.
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.

THE APOSTLES’ CREED
And in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord;
Who was conceived by the Holy
Spirit, Born of the Virgin Mary;
suffered under Pontius Pilate; Was crucified,
died, and was buried;
He descended into hell; The third day He rose again
from the dead;
He ascended into heaven; and sitteth on the right hand of
God the Father Almighty;
From thence He shall come to judge the quick and
the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit; The holy Christian Church,
the
Communion of Saints; The forgiveness of sins;
The resurrection of the
body; And the life everlasting. Amen.

I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth and of all
things visible and invisible.And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only -begotten Son
of God, begotten of His Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very
God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father,
by whom all things were made; who for us men and for our salvation came down
from heaven and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, and was
made man, and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; He suffered and
was buried; and the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures;
ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of the Father; and He shall
come again with glory to judge both quick and the dead. And I believe in the Holy Ghost; the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeded from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together, is worshiped and glorified, who spake by the Prophets. And I believe one holy Christian and Apostolic Church. I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins; and I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen. |
| THANKS
I want to thank you Jesus, for taking care of me today. Everywhere I went,
everything I did, I know that you were right by my side.
Sometimes you were so quiet I hardly knew you were there. Sometimes I saw
your hand working in powerful ways to steer me in the
directionryou wanted me to go and to protect me when I faced situations that
could have hurt me. Thank you for staying so close.
Thank you stepping in front of me when I was so busy that forgot to keep my
eyes on
you. And thank you for loving me even when
I havent been so lovable. You are a great Friend and a great God. Im glad I dont
have to worry about you ever leaving my side. In your precious name I pray.
Amen. |
WHEN EVERY DAY IS SPECIAL
0 Lord, today is truly special, for it comes as a gift from you to me. I am
surrounded by the marvelous things you have made: babies are born, leaves
bud on the trees, bodies heal after illness, children ride two-wheelers for the first
time, people build friendships. Help me to always see your hand in my world,
even on what seems like the most ordinary of days. Open my eyes to see your
love in countless little things, and in that way become aware of the grand scale
of your grace. Make my heart sing with your Praise today and every day. Today
is truly special for it is a gift from you to me. Thank you for this day. Amen. |
| Before the
Meal
Come, Lord Jesus, be our guest
| After the Meal We give thanks to Thee, O Lord, for Thou art good, and Thy mercy endureth forever. Amen. |

Help us, O Lord, when
we must pass through times of testing, when it seems no news is good news,
when even friends leave us alone. Break into our lives with your promises .
Enable us to hear you speaking to our souls, be of good cheer; I have overcome
the world.
Enable us, Heavenly Father to rejoice with those who rejoice. Bless all who celebrate anniversaries and times of rejoicing of any kind. Surround your people with friends, make us quiet with good memories, bond us to you and one another. Enable us to see, in all circumstances, your faithfulness, your presence, and your peace. Amen Pastor T. Kriefall God our Father, life pulls us in many directions, and presents many possibilities. Sometimes we do not know which way to turn. There are so many claims upon our time, so many demands for our attention, that the very range of choices before us drives us to distraction. It is then that we need you. Yours is the ultimate claim on our lives; help us to listen for it in all the other claims that are made on us. Because we cannot do everything, help us to get our priorities right, to know what you want us to do now, and what we have to leave. May the stress and strain of life not break us, but make us stronger, for Jesus sake. Amen. |

After an Evangelism Call
Thank you, Father, for the opportunity to share the love of Jesus. Cause the
Word in this witness to spring up and bear the fruit of faith. According to Your
gracious and saving will, grant me the opportunity to clearly share the gospel
with this person again. In Christ, Amen. |
