Minister To announce The Lord’s Prayer….…..All

Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name;

thy kingdom come;

thy will be done;

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

And forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation;

but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom,

the power and the glory, for ever and ever.

Amen

Minister

May God give to you and to all you love

his cohort and his peace,

his light and his joy

In this world, and the next

and the blessing of God almighty,

the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit,

be upon you and remain with you always
