Christian Reflection and Prayer

Verse

And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine
and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
Acts 2:42 NKJV Study Bible

Voice

It is not for oneself alone that each person asks to be
forgiven, not to be led into temptation, or to be delivered
from evil. Rather, we pray in public as a community, and
not for one individual but for all.
Cyprian of Carthage

Prayer

Lord, you have woven the threads of creation too finely
together for any of us to exist as islands unto ourselves.
Teach us to delight in your web of life and to know
ourselves in community. Amen.
Common Prayer
