September 6

On this day in 1997, the funeral of Diana,
the young Princess of Wales, was held
in Westminster Abbey. The following
words were sung, and they can be our
words of commitment today:


I would be true
- for there are those who trust me.
I would be pure
- for there are those who care.
I would be strong
- for there is much to suffer.
I would be brave
- for there is much to dare.
I would be friend of all,
the foe, the friendless.
I would be giving,
and forget the gift.
I would be humble,
for I know my weakness.
I would look up,
laugh, love and live.

Let us pray:

Lord Jesus,
the bravery and courage
and self-sacrifice
of the villagers of Eyam
remind us of your words
that there is no greater love
than for someone
to lay down their life
for their friends. Jn 1512

We pray for courage
when difficult times come upon us.
We pray, too, for the generosity
to think of others before ourselves.
Amen

September 8

Grace Darling was awarded a medal for
her courage and bravery. She became a
national heroine and, after many requests
for a lock of her hair, she joked that she
was going bald! Grace died of tuberculosis
(T.B.) only 4 years later, aged 26.


Let us pray:

Lord, we know that each of us
will experience difficulties
of various kinds
at different times in our lives.
We pray for courage at those times,
but we also pray
for courage and strength
to join others
and be of support
when they are in difficulty.
Amen.

September 9

Let us pray,
thinking of those who look back
and wish they had an extra day
or more time:
- those who have too little time
for what they are expected to do;
- those who have lost
a sense of balance and proportion
in their lives;
- those who feel
that they have made a mess
of everything
and would like to be able
to start again.
for those who might wish for less time:
- those who are worried
about what might happen;
- those who are in despair;
- those who suffer
hours of pain and illness;
- those who are in prison
or being tortured;
- those who wish to die.

On all these people, Lord,
we ask your blessing.

September 10

Let us pray:

God our Father,
the Bible reminds us
that your love for each of us is great
and that you are faithful for ever,
never letting us down.
Inspire us
to value friendship and loyalty,
and grow in faithfulness
to those who love and trust us.
Amen.
