Evening Prayer

In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
 
Let my prayer be counted as incense before you,
and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice. (Psalm 141)
 
Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.
 
As our evening prayer rises before you, O God,
so may your mercy come down upon us
to cleanse our hearts
and set us free to sing your praise. Amen.
 
After the opening prayer read prayerfully a section of one of the Gospels and spend some time thinking about what God is saying to you through this passage.
 
After reading the Scriptures say the Magnificat (The Song of Mary), Luke 1:46-55

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour;  ♦
he has looked with favour on his lowly servant.
 
From this day all generations will call me blessed;  ♦
the Almighty has done great things for me
and holy is his name.
 
He has mercy on those who fear him,  ♦
from generation to generation.
 
He has shown strength with his arm  ♦
and has scattered the proud in their conceit,
 
Casting down the mighty from their thrones  ♦
and lifting up the lowly.
 
He has filled the hungry with good things  ♦
and sent the rich away empty.
 
He has come to the aid of his servant Israel,  ♦
to remember his promise of mercy,
 
The promise made to our ancestors,  ♦
to Abraham and his children for ever.
 
Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.
 
After this, offer your personal prayers to God.
Intercessions should be offered also
¨ for HM the Queen and those in authority under her
¨ for the workers in the emergency and social services, and in care professions
¨ for doctors, nurses, medical researchers, and hospital staff
¨ for our parish and its growth in numbers, holiness, and commitment.
 
Finish your intercessions by saying the Lord’s Prayer and the following prayer.

 
Most merciful God,
who by the death and resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ
delivered and saved the world:
grant that by faith in him who suffered on the Cross
we may triumph in the power of his victory;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
The Lord bless us, and keep us from all evil,
and bring us to everlasting life. Amen.
 
Let us bless the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
