Prayer for Christian Unity 2007
 

Open our eyes that we may see Jesus the Daystar, who dispels our shadows.
Open our ears that we may hear the voices muffled
by the trials and struggles of this transient world.
Open our hearts, that Together we may know how to respond
to the pain of those among us who are suffering;
as Jesus respectfully entered the world of the man
who could neither hear nor speak, and healed him.
This we ask, through Christ, our Lord. Amen. 

(The core text: Mark 7: 31-37)
 
Loving Father,
Thank you for all joy, blessings and true Christian friendship You have showered us with in the past and we seek Your guidance for the way ahead. We pray for the Leaders and Members of all Eight Churches and that we all may be ‘envisioned’ by Your Holy Spirit to live as your Ambassadors for Unity, Love, Witness and Mission here.
 
We ask for Your continued blessing on the organisations’ ‘Witnessing for You’ and ‘Walking alongside others in times of trouble and difficulties’ TOGETHER.
