Pew sheet - 23rd August 2015

Prayer:  God of constant mercy, who sent your Son to save us: remind us of your goodness, increase your grace within us, that our thankfulness may grow, through Jesus Christ our Lord.   

Amen

Collect for the Twelfth Sunday after Trinity

Almighty and everlasting God, you are always more ready to hear than we are to pray, and to give more than either we desire or deserve: pour down upon us the abundance of your mercy, forgiving us those things of which our conscience is afraid and giving us those good things which we are not worthy to ask but through the merits and mediation of Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.   Amen

Pew Sheet - 16th August 2015

Prayer:  God of glory, the end of our searching, help us to lay aside all that prevents us from seeking your kingdom, and to give all that we have to gain the pearl beyond all price, through our Saviour Jesus Christ.   

Amen

Collect for the Eleventh Sunday after Trinity

O GOD, who declarest thy almighty power most chiefly in shewing mercy and pity: Mercifully grant unto us such a measure of thy grace, that we, running the way of thy commandments, may obtain thy gracious promises, and be made partakers of thy heavenly treasure; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

We are grateful to Canon Robin Brown for stepping in and agreeing to take the Holy Communion service in Chearsley this week.   He has kindly sent us the following brief biography:

'Married to Vicky for 46 years, we have 2 children, 3 grandchildren and 3 'granddogs.'   Ordained in 1969, I have worked mostly in Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire, my last full time post as a Diocesan Officer based in St Albans.   I was privileged to be made an Honorary Canon of St Albans Cathedral in 1994.   Vicky and I moved to Princes Risborough 5 years ago to be near our daughter and her family.'
