The Scottish Episcopal Church and other denominations join together in prayer on Sunday at 7pm, as they have done throughout the coronavirus pandemic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many of those joining together in prayer, which appears below in English and Gaelic, will also light candles.<\/p>\n

In a joint message, church leaders in Scotland said:<\/p>\n

“The faith we share affirms that it was \u2018for us\u2019 that Jesus Christ \u2018became truly human\u2019. So, in faith, when we turn to God and pray through Jesus Christ, we do so knowing that the One who brings us into the presence of God has shared fully in the life we live. The life we live today is shaped by particular circumstances that weigh upon us collectively and personally. In the midst of life, we find opportunity and challenge, and we seek to discern the hand of God throughout it all. In the midst of life, we recall that Jesus has shared in our flesh and participated in the life of the world.<\/p>\n

“The Letter to the Hebrews records: \u2018In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears\u2019. (Hebrews 5: 7) In so recording, the Letter affirms that the One who brings us into the presence of God has shared fully in the depths of human experience. There is no place in our experience at which God cannot meet us. As we cry out to God, the One who hears us is the One who has heard the cries of Jesus Christ.”<\/p>\n

We pray:<\/em><\/p>\n

God and Father<\/em>
\nOf our Lord Jesus Christ,<\/em>
\nHear the prayer we offer<\/em>
\nIn the name of the One who prays for us<\/em>
\nAnd who has shared in the life of the world.<\/em>
\nLord, in Your mercy,<\/em>
\nHear our prayer.<\/em><\/p>\n

God and Father<\/em>
\nOf our Lord Jesus Christ,<\/em>
\nHear the prayer we offer<\/em>
\nFrom the depths of our experience<\/em>
\nAnd in the midst of the challenges of our day.<\/em>
\nLord, in Your mercy,<\/em>
\nHear our prayer.<\/em><\/p>\n

God and Father<\/em>
\nOf our Lord Jesus Christ,<\/em>
\nHear the prayer we offer<\/em>
\nIn the name of the One who prayed to You with cries and tears<\/em>
\nAnd hear us when we do so also.<\/em>
\nLord, in Your mercy,<\/em>
\nHear our prayer.<\/em><\/p>\n

God and Father<\/em>
\nOf our Lord Jesus Christ,<\/em>
\nHear the prayer we offer<\/em>
\nAs we share in the life of the world<\/em>
\nAnd in the depths of its suffering.<\/em>
\nLord, in Your mercy,<\/em>
\nHear our prayer.<\/em><\/p>\n

God and Father<\/em>
\nOf our Lord Jesus Christ,<\/em>
\nHear the prayer we offer<\/em>
\nIn the name of the One who for us and for our salvation<\/em>
\nHas become truly human and one with us.<\/em>
\nLord, in Your mercy,<\/em>
\nHear our prayer.<\/em><\/p>\n
