Prayers for Holy Week

Canon Andy Herrick has kindly produced a set of prayer cards for Holy Week for use on social media. We thought you might like to have them too.

Passion Sunday

Lord Jesus, the Resurrection and the Life, speak words of life, and breathe your life-giving Spirit into us, your people. May we know your power within and proclaim the gospel of life afresh in all we say and do. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Arglwydd Iesu, yr Atgyfodiad a'r Bywyd, llefara giriau bywyd, ac anadla Ysbryd y bywyd i mewn i ni, dy bobl. Bydded inni adnabod dy nerth oddi mewn a chyhoeddi efengyl y bywyd o'r newydd ym mhopeth a ddywedwn ac a wnawn. Trwy Iesu Grist ein Harglwydd. Amen

Palm Sunday

Teach us, Lord, to walk humbly with you on your journey to the cross. As we travel, may we touch the lives of those around us with your love and healing power. And reveal to us afresh the depth and breadth of your grace and love as we see you lay down your life for us. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Dysg ni, Arglwydd, i rodio’n ostyngedig gyda thi ar dy daith i'r groes. Wrth i ni gerdded, bydded inni gyffwrdd â bywydau'r rhai o'n cwmpas â'th gariad a'th nerth iachaol. A dangos i ni o'r newydd ddyfnder a lled dy ras a'th gariad wrth i ni dy weld yn rhoi dy einioes drosom ni. Trwy Iesu Grist ein Harglwydd. Amen

Easter Sunday

Alleluia! Christ is Risen! Almighty God, may this victory shout rise from deep within as we stand at the empty grave, knowing that Christ is alive again. May we live in your resurrection power, and know your company along the way, as we share this wonderful news of light and life with the dark and lost world that surrounds us. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Aleliwia! Atgyfododd Crist! Hollalluog Dduw, bydded i'r sŵn buddugoliaethol hwn godi o ddwfn y tu mewn i ni wrth i ni sefyll wrth y bedd gwag, gan wybod bod Crist yn fyw drachefn. Bydded inni fyw yn nerth dy atgyfodiad, ac adnabod dy gwmni ar hyd y ffordd, wrth i ni rannu'r newyddion rhyfeddol hwn o oleuni a bywyd gyda'r byd tywyll sy'n ein hamgylchynu. Trwy Iesu Grist ein Harglwydd. Amen
