Flower Festival - "Prayer"

Togetherness in prayer

Flower arrangements by St. Simon and St. Jude, Milton-on-Stour

Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Psalm 23
*

Lighten our darkness, we beseech thee, O Lord; and by thy great mercy defend from all perils and dangers of this night; for the love of thy only Son, our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen.

3rd Collect at Evening Prayer
*

Blessed be the Lord for the precious things of heaven, for the dew and for the deep that coucheth beneath and for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon ....
As thy days so shall thy strength be ....
The eternal God is thy refuge and underneath are the everlasting arms.

Deuteronomy - from the blessing of the tribes.
