Hello everyone.
We are all saddened by the death of HM Queen Elizabeth 11. We thank God for her life of service, faith and example. We pray for the Royal family in their time of loss and sorrow. We pray for our nation, the Commonwealth and the world in this time of flux, change and uncertainty. May we all know the peace of Christ and his love and support at this time. These prayers from the Church of England might help at this time as we are in shock though we knew it would come one day.
Gracious God, we give thanks
for the life of your servant Queen Elizabeth,
for her faith and her dedication to duty.
Bless our nation as we mourn her death
and may her example continue to inspire us;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
God of love,
We thank you for the life of The Queen,
for her service to our nation,
and for her faith in you.
Be close to all of us who mourn,
that we may we find comfort and hope in your love,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Everlasting God, we pray for our new King.
Bless his reign and the life of our nation.
Help us to work together
so that truth and justice, harmony and fairness
flourish among us;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
