Through your Spirit keep us ever awake and vigilant, ready to welcome

reigns with you and the Ruach haKodesh, one God, now and forever. Amen.
29 October: Charitable Father, all we have comes from
you. You have shown yourself to us and offered us your word, that we may know
you, but still we turn away. We humbly ask forgiveness when we forsake you. This
we ask through our Lord and Saviour Yeshua haMoshiach, who lives and reins with
you and the Ruach haKodesh, one God in glory everlasting. Amen.
30 October: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, you have chosen
us to live with you forever as children in your image. Guide us to be faithful
to you, as we live each moment here on earth and as we patiently await our
reward in heaven. This we ask through our Lord and Saviour Yeshua haMoshiach,
who lives and reins with you and the Ruach haKodesh, one God in glory
everlasting. Amen.
31 October: Heavenly Father, on this day Martin Luther
nailed his theses to the door of the Wittenberg Cathedral, not to challenge the
church, but to transform it into a true body for mission. Grant us zeal in reforming the church and translating
scripture and liturgy so all may understand your word, and be enabled for
mission to the entire world. This we ask
in the name of our Lord Yeshuah. Amen. (white)
1 November: Blessed
God, you have raised up saints in every generation to be lights for us to show
us that we too can imitate Messiah. So
govern our hearts, that as we remember the heroes of the church, that we follow
their example and live for you. This we
ask in the name of Yeshuah who lives and reins with you and the Ruach haKodesh,
one God, surrounded by saints and all the company of heaven. Amen. (white)
2 November: Blessed Father, you
are the Lord of the Living, and all the faithful are alive to you. Bless us with the memories of our loved ones
who have gone on before us, that we following their examples may find a mansion
prepared for us by our Lord Yeshua. This we ask in his most precious name.
Amen. (white)
3 November: Heavenly Father, you
gave your presbyter Richard Hooker wonderful gifts of understanding and
teaching; raise up in this and every
generation men who would teach us the true faith, and help us with Richard to
remember that all things are to be measured by scripture, and where scripture
is silent we are to follow the traditions of the church, and where both are
silent, we are to use our reason based on the witness of scripture and
tradition. This we ask through Yeshuah,
who lives and reins with you and Ruach haKodesh, one God in glory
everlasting. Amen. (white)
