Weekdays after Pentecost, Post Communion (Redub)


Gracious God, lover of all that is yours,
in this sacrament we join the whole Creation
in celebrating your Son’s rescue.
Help us to grow in love for what you have made,
and to join the community that Son and Spirit indwell;
that your church may be the Body of Christ here on earth.
We make our prayer through your Son, our Saviour.

The Gunning Fog readability index suggests 11.57 years of formal education is required to understand this prayer on a first reading, the Common Worship prayer requires 16.92 years.

Here's the information on how this prayer is a redub.

My collection of four prayers for the Weekdays after Pentecost are here.

You can also look at the full Index of Prayers.

The project runs from Advent 2012 to Advent 2013.

If you want to use the prayers, an acknowledgement of myself as author and, if there's space, the link to my blog would be much appreciated.
