This Week’s Intercessions 
The response for our Intercessions this week is:  
Loving Creator, who listens to every living thing,
Help us to listen and love in the way of Jesus.
Holy you are our creator and giver of all things good. You fill us with your Holy Spirit to walk in the way of your Son. You nourish us and quench our thirst as we make our journey together as your people. We serve you and offer ourselves in the name of Jesus. As we pray this day, may our hearts reach out with the love of your Son, that there may be healing, justice, and peace for this world.

For Peace and Reconciliation - We pray for calm and a cooling of hostilities in many places around the world. We pray for the people of Haiti. We pray for peace between Russia and Ukraine, Israel and Gaza. We pray for political leaders that they may truly offer themselves for the good of their people and cooperate with one another within their own countries and with their neighbours for the well being of all nations.

For the Communities We thank you for our communities of Delta, Surrey, and other surrounding communities where we live. We pray your blessing on all forms of leadership amongst us that we may live for one another, particularly as we care and give support to the homeless, the addicted, the unemployed, and others in need amongst us, yet go unseen.  We give thanks for our multicultural community and pray for opportunities to grow in our knowledge and understanding of one another.

The Church – We seek the wisdom of the Holy Spirit to lead and guide your church all around the world; remembering our companion Diocese: The Episcopal Diocese of Northern Philippines, for Bishop Benny Lang-akan, clergy, & people. Our twinned parishes: St. Bede, Panabungen & St Luke, Maliten – The Rev. Albino Fag-ayan. We pray for strength, renewal, insight, and loving care. 

In the Wider Church and in the Anglican Communion – May your Spirit guide and protect churches and go before them as they share the Gospel. We pray for the United Church of Pakistan and for the Anglican Church in South Sudan. We ask you to bless the work and witness of charities that carry out loving work - for ‘Sleeping Children Around the World’, International China Concern, HOPE International, Young Life, for PWRDF of our own Anglican Church of Canada and for the Cdn Food Grains Bank. Bless all those who seek to end hunger, build community, and work for justice in this world.
