Morning & Night Prayer
If you would like to join with us, we are saying Morning Prayer at 9.00am Monday to Saturday and Night Prayer at 9.00pm Monday to Saturday. Whenever you are able, why not say it at the same time as we do, then we will be joining together in prayer and worship.
The Worship at Home Booklet can be found here.

Readings for Night Prayer (for Epiphany)
Short Reading:
The grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all. (Titus 2.11)
Psalm 16
1 Preserve me, O God, for in you have I taken refuge; ♦
I have said to the Lord, ‘You are my lord, all my good depends on you.’
2 All my delight is upon the godly that are in the land, ♦
upon those who are noble in heart.
3 Though the idols are legion that many run after, ♦
their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, neither make mention of their names upon my lips.
4 The Lord himself is my portion and my cup; ♦
in your hands alone is my fortune.
5 My share has fallen in a fair land; ♦
indeed, I have a goodly heritage.
6 I will bless the Lord who has given me counsel, ♦
and in the night watches he instructs my heart.
7 I have set the Lord always before me; ♦
he is at my right hand; I shall not fall.
8 Wherefore my heart is glad and my spirit rejoices; ♦
my flesh also shall rest secure.
9 For you will not abandon my soul to Death, ♦
nor suffer your faithful one to see the Pit.
10 You will show me the path of life; in your presence is the fullness of joy ♦
and in your right hand are pleasures for evermore.
Collect:
King of kings and Lord of lords,
making the true light to shine:
lighten our darkness now and evermore
that with our lips and in our lives
we may praise you;
for you are our God, now and for ever.
Blessing:
May the living waters of Christ cleanse us,
may the Spirit descend upon us,
and the blessing of God be with us
this night and always.
