THE PARISH OF BERKHAMSTED

St Peter’s with All Saints’

TRINITY SUNDAY 15 June 2003

Eucharistic Prayer B is being used at Holy Communion Services today

We welcome all who worship here today. If you are a newcomer please speak to one of the welcomers or to one of the clergy. We invite you to complete a card which you will find in your pew, or on the table near the door of the church, and hand it to one of the welcomers. Communicant members of all Churches are welcome to receive Holy Communion. If you are not receiving Communion please come to the altar rail for a blessing and carry a book so the minister knows.

Collect: Holy God, faithful and unchanging: enlarge our minds with the knowledge of your truth, and draw us more deeply into the mystery of your love, that we may truly worship you, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever AMEN

Readings: Isaiah 6.1-8 Romans 8.12-17 John 3.1-17

Post Communion: Almighty and eternal God, you have revealed yourself as Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and live and reign in the perfect unity of love: hold us firm in this faith, that we may know you in all ways and evermore rejoice in your eternal glory, who are three Persons yet one God, now and for ever. AMEN

We pray this week

for Christopher our Bishop and for Christopher and Richard his suffragans

for our Church Schools, Victoria First School and headteacher, Janet Robinson and Thomas Coram School and acting headteacher, Tony Jeffryes,

for the Guyana Diocesan Association

for the lonely, the anxious, the bereaved; and amongst the sick for Judith Hill, Jim Lawrenson, Joan Calnan, Brenda Quarmby, Michael Taylor, Susanne Kirkby, Muriel Norman

for those who have died recently:

We give thanks for our communion with all the Saints, especially the Blessed Virgin Mary and St Peter our patron.
