Castle Community Church’s thoughts and prayers are with the people of Manchester following the recent atrocity at the Manchester Arena.
A special prayer written by the Diocese of Manchester ….
God of compassion, you hear the cries of all who are in trouble of distress;
Accept our prayers for those whose lives are affected by the bombing in Manchester;
We pray especially for those suddenly facing a future without a child, parent or loved one,
Young ones who are in distress
Those who are injured, traumatized or awaiting news.
Strengthen them in their hour of need,
Grant them perseverance and courage to face the future
And be to them a firm foundation on which to build their lives;
This we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
