Prayer
Let Us Pray:
Lord, open up our hearts so that we may hear the message you teach
of a world in which the wrongs of the past are recognised
a world in which a reconciled people walk and talk together sharing stories;
a world in which all burn with the desire to have your peace and justice reign.
We ask this in Jesus’ name.
Aboriginal Our Father
You are Our Father, you live in heaven
We talk to you, Father you are good
We believe your Word Father
We your children, give us bread today
We have done wrong, we are sorry
Help us Father not to sin again
Others have done wrong to us
And we are sorry for them, Father today
Stop us from doing wrong, Father
Save us all from the evil one
You are Our Father, you live in heaven
We talk to you, Father you are good
The Lord’s Prayer from the “Missa Kimberley”
Lord, we pray for Reconciliation:
That the wrongs of the past may be recognized,
That our awareness of the journey so far be awakened,
And that the Spirit move us to walk the talk and see through what has been started.
We ask this in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
