The Didling Prayer
A prayer written for St Andrew's Church, Didling.
Loving Father, we praise and thank you for this tranquil place of worship which has witnessed to the Christian faith for many centuries.
As the shepherds of old who tended their sheep on the Downs remembered the Great Shepherd of the sheep, so may we too faithfully and lovingly fulfil your commands, remembering that we are also stewards of your great bounty.
So, Lord, as we recollect with gratitude all those who have loved and served you here, we pray that, like Saint Andrew, we too may be worthy disciples and ever seek to proclaim in our lives the Good News of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Amen.
