PRAYER FOR THE CHURCH IN SOUTHWARK

Loving God, help us to be open to the freshness of your Spirit. 
Fill us with enthusiasm for the Good News. 
Invite us into a deeper relationship with your Son, Jesus, truly present in the Eucharist. 
Make us more aware of where there is need for new life. 
Help us to reach out to those who feel lost or abandoned, those who are searching and questioning, those who have walked away from you and those who are eager to know your love. 
We ask this through Christ, Our Lord, Amen.
