Intercessions for Easter Day 4 April 2021
Jesus is alive and we can seek his help through prayer, so let us turn to him now.
We pray that God will help us to be confident about the grounds for our faith and enable us to be more effective witnesses.
Lord in your mercy ……… Hear our Prayer
We pray for those who feel God is far away; that they will be comforted by the Easter message that Christ is alive and with us.
Lord in your mercy ……… Hear our Prayer
We pray for those facing death or who are grieving; that Christ’s resurrection will bring hope and encouragement that death is not the end.
Lord in your mercy ……… Hear our Prayer
We pray for those struggling with guilt; that they may know this Easter that Christ has defeated sin as well as death, to bring us forgiveness.
Lord in your mercy ……… Hear our Prayer
Thank you, Lord, that you are with us and hear our prayers. We ask all these things through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Lord in your mercy ……… Hear our Prayer
Merciful father accept these prayers for the sake of your son, our saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen
Conclusion
Let us pray with confidence to the Father, in the words our Saviour taught us:
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.
Post Communion for 4 April
Living God, who for our redemption gave your only-begotten Son to the death of the cross, and by his glorious resurrection have delivered us from the power of our enemy: grant us so to die daily to sin, that we may evermore live with him in the joy of his risen life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN
Dismissal
May you know the risen Christ’s presence with you, giving you, through his Holy Spirit, the strength and wisdom you need for this coming week.
Blessing
And may the blessing of God almighty, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit be with us now and always. AMEN.
Prayer for the week
God of love, as we come to the empty tomb, we give you thanks for the glorious resurrection of Jesus. Help us not to be shy in telling others about Jesus’ new life, what it means for us and the joy it gives. This we ask in the power of the Holy Spirit. Alleluia. Amen.
Canon Robert Townsend
Collect for the week
Lord of all life and power, who through the mighty resurrection of your Son overcame the old order of sin and death to make all things new in him: grant that we, being dead to sin and alive to you in Jesus Christ, may reign with him in glory; to whom with you and the Holy Spirit be praise and honour, glory and might, now and in all eternity. AMEN

Alleluia Christ is Risen
He is Risen Indeed Alleluia
Lord Jesus Christ, in dying you conquered death and rose again in glory. Through your great love and abiding grace, we will one day be with you in your heavenly kingdom. Lord, we pray that we may make each day of our earthly life worthy of your great sacrifice on the cross. Thank you that we can find sanctuary in your love because you have chosen to love us just as we are, with all our faults and failings and that, if we truly repent, you will forgive our sins. Amen
