  2. Prayers for the coming week (May 20 - 26) from Partners in World Development 20th May 2012 - In the Revised Common Lectionary this last week before Pentecost is the final week of the rather spectacular readings in 1 John and the Gospel of John.

  5. Prayers for the coming week (May 13 - 19) from Partners in World Development 13th May 2012 - This week's readings call us to obedience and love, linking the two intrinsically. The challenge of the new commandment "that you love one another as I have loved you" -- even to the point of sacrificing one's life -- may seem overwhelming. But it is God who strengthens us and who, when we fail, forgives and reconciles us ... and prepares us to love once again. Continue Reading
