Holy Week readings and activities
Thursday: theme -The last supper and the garden of gethsemane
prayer
Dear God,
Thank you for teaching us the importance of remembering. You knew that life is often hard and
that we would need to remember your goodness and love. You also knew that, in our human
weakness, we would forget. Thank you for giving us the bread and wine to remind us that we are
part of a bigger story than what happens today; thank you for giving us the bread and wine to
remind us that you are always with us; thank you for giving us the bread and wine to help us draw
close to your great love. Help us to keep remembering, O God. And help us also, in this time of
isolation, to remember that we are still part of your church. Remind us to pray for each other, and
to reach out to each other in appropriate ways.
In the holy name of Jesus Christ we pray,
Amen
