As our times are in your hands, we pray-

For deliverance of the girls abducted by Boku Haram;

As our times are in your hands,

For victory over all such attempts to intimidate, coerce, or damage;

As our times are in your hands,

For relief of the miners trapped underground in Turkey, and for their families;

As our times are in your hands,

For  guidance in the midst of  loss;

As our times are in your hands,

For redemption from malice, envy, and slander;

As our times are in your hands,

For fulfillment of all on our parish prayer list;

As our times are in your hands.

Celebrant: As Christ has promised,  through John,  to do  whatever we ask in His name, give us deliverance, victory, relief, guidance, and fulfillment. Amen.
